## Discrepancy

DURING A 100-HOUR INSPECTION, BOTH CENTER AILERON HINGES WERE FOUND BENT AND THE LEFT HINGE WAS CRACKED APPROXIMATELY 3 INCHES FORWARD OF HINGE BEARING.  THERE IS NO OTHER APPARENT DAMAGE TO AILERON, WING, OR INBOARD AND OUTBOARD HINGES (WHICH SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE) AND IT HAS NOT BEEN SUBJECTED TO HIGH WINDS.
