What was found
SLIDE HAD BEEN DEPLOYED CAUSING HOLES IN INFLATION TUBE AND HEAVY SEAM DEGRADATION. PROBABLE CAUSE OF HOLES IN THE INFLATABLE IS FOREIGN OBJECT DAMAGE (FOD) DURING DEPLOYMENT OR PERHAPS DUE TO HANDLING DURING TRANSPORTATION. SINCE THE DAMAGE WAS BEYOND THE CMM ALLOWED REPAIR LIMITS, THE UNIT WAS SENT TO THE OEM FOR REPAIR. THE OEM WILL HAVE TO EVALUATE THE EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE AND PERFORM OEM REPAIRS WHERE APPLICABLE.
