## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING A DAILY INSPECTION, A CRACK ON A PROP BLADE APPROX 5 LONG, NO REPORT FROM THE PILOT AND NO SIGN OF IMPACT WAS FOUND DURING THE VISUAL INSPECTION. IT WAS REPORTED THAT A FEW DAYS BEFORE PAINT STARTED PEELING OFF FROM THAT BLADE AND KEPT PROGRESSING EACH DAY UNTIL A CRACK WAS FOUND.  FURTHER INVESTIGATION REVEAL AFTER TAB TEST INSPECTION SOME DELAMINATION AROUND THE CRACK.
