## Discrepancy

CRACKED SPAR PLATE AT WING STRUT ATTACHMENT LT WING.  APPEARS THAT SOME ONE HAS ATTEMPTED TO ADD GLUE TO PLATE FROM A HOLE CUT INTO FABRIC ON TOP WING.  IN OTHER WORDS, THIS CRACK HAS BEEN THERE FOR SOME TIME.  COULD NOT DETERMINE IF MAIN SPAR CRACKED OR SPLIT.  TALKED WITH LAST INSPECTOR AND SAID WING WAS INSPECTED BY PROBE WITH CAMERA ATTACHMENT AND WAS DETERMINED AIRWORTHY AT THAT TIME. (K)
