## Discrepancy

AN X-RAY WAS PERFORMED ON AN AILERON IAW TASK CARD 5751-551-01I. THE X-RAY INDICATED A CRACK IN THE SPAR. THE CUSTOMER SENT OVER ANOTHER AILERON (PN 7257610-611 SN 0035) FOR THE SAME INSPECTION AND IT WAS FOUND CRACKED AS WELL. TWO MORE AILERONS (PN 7257610-615 SN 816112 AND PN 7257610-601 SN 0019) WERE SENT OVER FOR THE INSPECTION AND BOTH PASSED.
