What was found

WINGS WERE PREVIOUSLY REMOVED TO FACILITATE TRANSPORTATION. INSP OF THE LT AND RT FWD SPAR BEARING BLOCKS IN THE FUSELAGE (P/N 0411129) FOUND SEVERE CORROSION DAMAGE. IT APPEARS TO BE DISSIMILAR METAL CORROSION BETWEEN THE SPAR BLOCKS AND THE AN3-21A ATTACHMENT BOLTS. THIS AREA WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT TO INSPECT WITH THE WINGS ATTACHED. THE SAME P/N AND WING ATTACHMENT SYS IS USED ON MOST OF THE AC SERIES HIGH WING AIRCRAFT.
