## Discrepancy

DURING AN ANNUAL INSP, MECHANIC FOUND A WORN AILERON CONTROL CABLE, PN-0510105-364, AT THE PULLEY CLUSTER (PULLEY PN S378-4) IN THE CTR OVERHEAD CEILING AREA.  CABLE MUST BE ROTATED SO ACCESS CAN BE GAINED WHERE CABLE REST ON THE PULLEY AT THE SIX O’CLOCK POSITION. THE CABLE WEAR IS NOT EASY TO SEE AND A STRONG MAGNIFYING DEVICE MUST BE USED.
