## Discrepancy

DURING AN A-CHECK EARLIER THIS YEAR, DAMAGE WAS FOUND ON THE AFT CLOSEOUT RING,ON THE #2 ENG OTBD T/R (P/N 683L181G06, S/N R648-631).  THE DAMAGE WAS DEFERRED PER REF /A/ TO EITHER REPAIR THE DAMAGE OR REPLACE THE T/R AT THE NEXT C-CHK.  THE AIRCRAFT IS CURRENTLY IN C-CHK AND REPLACING THE T/R IS NOT AN OPTION BECAUSE THERE ARE NO AVAILABLE REPLACEMENT T/R’S, AND THERE ARE NO REPAIRS GIVEN IN REF /B/, SO FLIGHT VEHICLES CONSULTING INC. (FVCI) WAS CONTACTED FOR AN FAA-DER APPROVED REPAIR.  THE PURPOSE OF THIS REA IS TO AUTHORIZE AND DOCUMENT ACCOMPLISHMENT OF REF /C/, WHICH IS AN FAA-DER APPROVED REPAIR. REPAIRED IAW ABX-REA-7830-66012-00.AND FVCI EO  26084-1  IR
