    Believe it or not, rabbits will also eat wiring on a car. I have seen it happen to cars parked here in Boulder. Once I came back after being away from the airport for a week and opened the hood to check the oil and the rabbit was in the engine compartment!
    The tv news also said people at Denver Int airport were having the same thing happen, and the shop said they have often seen this. Must be some tough bunny to chew up an ignition wire, but I have seen the results.

    Re: Photo. That wing was resting in field for years. A few of the wing bays were field with these rats nests. Obviously we removed the skin and then proceeded with a power wash and non-corrosive soap. Corrosion-x was fogged in later. This is a Museum TBM-3e. The TBM is a big plane!

    You don't treat corrosion. You eliminate corrosion. Then, go by the manuals for proper repair.

    I've got a mystery critter in the hangar, he's been into my mouse poison, and back for more. I stepped up pest control measures.
