## Discrepancy

APPROXIMATELY 8 RIB ATTACH NAILS WERE FOUND MISSING ON EACH WING.  (BOTH SPARS)  SCRATCHES AND GOUGES WERE FOUND ON LEFT REAR SPAR MID AREA.  THESE WERE APPARENTLY MADE BY REPAIRMAN SLIDING RIBS DOWN SPAR, DURING THE LAST REPAIR OF WING.  BOTH WINGS WILL HAVE COVER REMOVED FOR FURTHER INSPECTION AND REPAIR.
