What was found
DURING A SCHEDULED FUNCTIONAL TEST OF THE RAM AIR TURBINE PER TASK CARD 24-23-00-004, ONE OF THE TURBINE BLADES CONTACTED AND JAMMED AGAINST THE INTERNAL FUSELAGE SKIN AROUND THE CUTOUT AFTER MANUALLY DEPLOYING THE RAT. THE RAT DID NOT DEPLOY FULLY, WHICH IS A MALFUNCTION THAT MAY ENDANGER THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE AIRCRAFT, AND IS THEREFORE SDR-REPORTABLE PER THE GMM CHAPTER 190. THE DAMAGE TO THE INTERNAL STRUCTURE OF THE FUSELAGE WAS NON-SIGNIFICANT SUPERFICIAL DAMAGE. THE AFFECTED RAT BLADE WAS BENT OUT OF SERVICEABLE LIMITS, NECESSITATING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE RAT.
