## Discrepancy

(CAN) UPON INSPECTION, THE LT AILERON PUSH ROD WAS FOUND TO BE NOTICEABLY HEAVIER THAN THE OTHER. THE TUBE WAS CHECKED WITH A MAGNET AND FOUND TO BE STEEL. NO RECORD CAN BE FOUND OF STEEL PUSH RODS BEING APPROVED FOR DHC-2 BEAVER AIRCRAFT - SUSPECT BOGUS PART. THE TUBE SECTION WAS REPLACED WITH AN APPROVED COMPONENT.
