What was found
ELT ANTENNA BREAKS IN HALF AND LEAVES THE AIRPLANE IN FLIGHT. WE HAVE INSTALLED (2) ELT ANTENNAS P/N 110-323 AND BOTH HAVE BROKEN OFF. WE ARE NOW INSTALLING A THIRD. THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ANTENNAS, BUT AT THIS TIME, IT IS NOT A PRIORITY TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. ANOTHER ANTENNA TO REPLACE THE CURRENT ANTENNA, THE PAPERWORK TO ALLOW FOR THE NEW ANTENNA TO BE INSTALLED IS NOT A PRIORITY AT THIS TIME.
