#1 "Airbus emphasizes that these cracks do not affect the safe operation of the aircraft."

" Gee, General Custer, what do you think all them Indians want?"

While I have repaired/replaced a fair number of little clips, as these brackets are sometimes called, it seems to me that for a new aircraft a little Root Cause Analysis is in order. Especially when the wing break test was marginal, at best.
(Full Dislosure: Airbus is currently putting a good portion of my bread on the table with each set of interior parts we ship)
