## Discrepancy

DURING PILOT'S PREFLIGHT, NOTICED THE RIGHT AILERON, INBOARD SIDE, HAVING EXCESSIVE PLAY. FURTHER INSPECTION REVEALED THAT THE TWO BOLTS (AN4-12A)HOLDING THE INBOARD AILERON HINGE AND THE OUTBOARD FLAP HINGE WERE LOOSE. THIS ALLOWED THE AILERON HINGE BRACKET TO MOVE UP AND DOWN ABOUT 3/16". THE NUTS WERE TORQUE-SEAL STRIPED. MAINTENANCE RE-TORQUED THE NUTS AND DID A RIGGING CHECK. NO FURTHER ACTION REQUIRED. THE LEFT WING WAS INSPECTED AND THE HARDWARE WAS FOUND TO BE TIGHT.
