## Discrepancy

During MCK in ATL, while inspecting the interior structure, the RH side of the 598 frame was found to have 3.0 inch long crack between longeron 18 an 19, on the outboard flange. The crack runs fron the first fastener hole below the pocket to the third hole. Repaired per EA 99-189681.
