## Discrepancy

DURING TRANSIT CHECK, DETECTED A BIRD STRIKE IN THE RT HORIZONTAL STABILIZER LE.  A BIRD STRIKE CONDITIONAL INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED IAW AMM 05-51-18 DETECTING A DENT 8.5 INCHES IN LENGTH, 3 INCHES IN WIDTH & 0.391 INCHES IN DEPTH IN THE LE SKIN OF THE RT HORIZONTAL STABILIZER.  SO THE AFFECTED LE WAS REPAIRED IAW 5300-2, SRM 51-40-02 & MSG NR AMX-AMX-14-1089-02B, ALL CORRECT.
