PSA: Stop ignoring the AD notes on older Gulfstreams

I just wrapped a GIV-SP inspection last week in Savannah and found 3 corrosion spots that matched an AD from 2019 that nobody at our shop had flagged. It took 22 extra man-hours to fix, all because someone didn't update the binder. Has anyone else dealt with outdated AD compliance systems causing this kind of headache?

Wait wait wait, 2019?? And they just let that sit in the binder for 5 years without a peep from the compliance team? That's wild lmao.

See it everywhere now, people just let broken stuff sit forever hoping it fixes itself.

Blame it on how we treat everything now like it's disposable but also too much trouble to deal with. Same thing with people ignoring their check engine light for months and acting surprised when the car dies.
