Tu.no has questioned AH if they still belive the cause is outside the mgb, a AH spokesman says they are working closely with aibn and will not exclude any causes.
SF wanted to know what AH had done with the mgb they had repaired after a transport damage in Australia,
AH representatives explained the process after the mgb came in for repair, SF asked for the strip down report after the pepair/overhaul. AH answered they would check this out
