## Discrepancy

DURING 100-HOUR INSPECTION, THE FORWARD WING WALK AREA WAS FOUND CRACKED.  THE AREA IS DIFFICULT TO INSPECT AND MUST BE VIEWED THROUGH THE LANDING GEAR WELL.  THE SKIN IS DOUBLED WITH A CORRUGATED PIECE AND THE CRACKS WERE LOCATED AT EACH RADIUS OF THE CORRUGATIONS.  SKIN ASSEMBLY REPLACED.
