## Discrepancy

THE HORIZONTAL STABILIZER ATTACHMENT FITTING, WHERE THE PITCH TRIM ACTUATOR IS SECURED TO THE STABILIZER. EACH SIDE OF THE ATTACHMENT FITTING HAS 2 LUGS. ON THE LT SIDE, THESE 2 LUGS ARE SEPARATING.  THE GAP WAS MEASURED WITH A FEELER GUAGE, AND FOUND TO BE .018".  THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF DAMAGE TO THE STABILIZER.  THE BRACKET PN IS 555.10.12.150, ANGLE FITTING LT.  THE ACFT WAS REPAIRED USING TEMPORARY REV 55-01 OF THE PC-12/47E SRM 12-B-55-00-00-00A-904A-A.
