I indicated a few post ago that pilots flying the Mk2 from Mount Pleasant, just before the terrible Mull incident, were advised to remain able to land ASAP. I must add that included avoiding any climb to IMC, (which considering the state of knowledge of potential and likely FADEC problems at the time was akin to negligent action.)

Access to the engineering records on that particular Mk2 would show that, post the Mull crash, the airframe was grounded for "vibration problems" for quite a period of time.
