## Discrepancy

(CAN) AILERON BRACKETS WERE LOOSE ON SPAR AND IN SKIN ATTACH. UPON EXAMINATION FOUND BOTH BRACKETS CRACKED AT REAR AND BOTTOM FLANGES. IT APPEARS THAT THE BRACKETS HAD BEEN LOOSE PREVIOUSLY AND REPAIRED BY SUBSTITUING CHERRY MAX THROUGH BOTTOM SKIN WHICH DID NOT SOLVE PROBLEM. RT & LT AILERON HINGE BRACKETS P/N 1220053-11 & 1220053-18.
