I recall reading that the biggest problem in hot countries was that the adhesive broke down into a substance similar to runny cheese.

The author had the job of going round the flight line sniffing the airframes for signs of deterioration ("The New Science of Strong Materials")!

Would be nice to have one flying again, a really lovely aircraft.
