## Discrepancy

FOUND BULKHEAD WITH SEVERE CORROSION IN RT GEAR WELL WHERE LANDING GEAR PIVOT ATTACHES.  RIVETS IN THIS LOCATION CORRODED AND SHEARED.  EVIDENCE OF PLAY IN RT GEAR.  COMPLETE BULKHEAD NEEDED REPLACEMENT.  AIRCRAFT SPENT MOST OF ITS TIME IN SALT WATER ENVIRONMENT.  ALSO, ENGINE EXHAUST FLOWS ACROSS THIS AREA.  SUBMITTER SUGGESTS CLEAN AREA AND INSPECT THOROUGHLY, ESPECIALLY IN CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT.
