## Discrepancy

ENGINE MOUNT WAS REMOVED FOR INSPECTION FOLLOWING PROPELLER STRIKE WITH AIRCRAFT.  AEROSPACE WELDING REPORTED MOUNT WAS PUSHED UP ON LOWER SECTION AND PUSHED IN ON RIGHT SIDE.  AT REMOVAL MOUNT AWAS DIFFICULT TO REMOVE FORM ATTACHMENT BOLTS.  AFTER PROPELLER STRIKE ENGINE MOUNT SHOULD BE REMOVED FOR INSPECTION.
