## Discrepancy

DURING SCHEDULED INSPECTIONS, LOOSE FASTENERS ON BOTH SIDES OF VERTICAL STABILIZER FORWARD SPAR WERE NOTED.  ALTHOUGH A SIMILAR PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED IN SB 2004 ON EARLIER MODEL 1900S, ADDITIONAL EVALUATION AND STUDIES ARE RECOMMENDED AS OTHER PREVIOUS IDENTIFIED AREAS OF CONCERN IN THE EMPENNAGE SECTION MAY BE RELATED.  REPAIR WAS ACCOMPLISHED PER BEECHCRAFT RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE.
