## Discrepancy

THIS AIRCRAFT IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING AN A-CHK IN CVG, AND MAINTENANCE FOUND THE RIGHT WING UPPER T/E PANEL AT W.STA 433 TO BE BULGED UP WHERE IT ATTACHES TO THE T/E OF THE WING SKIN. AFTER THE PANEL WAS REMOVED, CORROSION WAS FOUND ON THE T/E OF WING SKIN PANEL #1 WHERE IT OVERHANGS THE REAR SPAR. THE CORROSION WAS REMOVED BY BLENDING, AND THE BLEND WAS BEYOND THE ALLOWABLE LIMIT GIVEN IN REF /A/. THERE IS NO REPAIR GIVEN FOR THIS IN THE B767-300 SRM SO FLIGHT VEHICLES CONSULTING, INC. WAS CONTACTED FOR AN FAA-DER APPROVED REPAIR. THE PURPOSE OF THIS REA IS TO AUTHORIZE AND DOCUMENT ACCOMPLISHMENT OF REF /B/, WHICH IS AN FAA-DER APPROVED REPAIR. REMOVED CORROSION AND REPAIRED IAW FVCI EO# 25185-1 REV IR W.S. 433 PER ABX-REA-5725-65905-00.
