What was found
DURING THE SID INSP, THE NLG WAS REMOVED FOR INSP. THE DRAG BRACE LT AND RT BRG PLATE HOLES WERE ALL FOUND EXCESSIVELY ELONGATED REQUIRING STRUCTURAL REPAIR. SUSPECT DAMAGE WAS CAUSED BY NORMAL TOWING OVER THE LIFE OF THE ACFT. THIS WOULD NOT BE DETECTED UNLESS THE NOSE GEAR IS REMOVED AS REQUIRED BY THE SID INSP CALLED OUT IN THE LATEST MANUAL REVISION 16.
