What was found
DURING THE PERFORMANCE OF AN ANNUAL INSPECTION, FOUND THE RT RUDDERVATOR TRIM CONTROL CABLE WAS ROUTED INCORRECTLY AND HAD CUT THROUGH THE RT RUDDERVATOR CONTROL TUBE APPROX 75 PERCENT. THE TUBE ALSO HAS SIGNS OF A CRACK ORIGINATING FROM THE DAMAGED SECTION OF THE TUBE (CUT AREA) AND HAD BEGUN TO BEND AS A RESULT OF WEAKENING OF THE TUBE AS IT WAS CUT. THERE WERE NO MX ENTRIES NOTED IN THE LOG BOOK TO BE ABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THIS MAY HAVE OCCURRED.
