## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHILE COMPLETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF CF 91-42R1 IAW SB 2/47 REV (E), THE RT FWD STABILIZER ATTACH BRACKET WAS FOUND TO BE CRACKED. THE CRACK EXTENDED FROM THE TOP OF THE IB EAR OF THE BRACKET, THROUGH THE LOCKWIRE HOLE AND CONTINUED APPROX 75 PERCENT OF THE WAY DOWN THE BRACKET. THIS AIRCRAFT OPERATES EXCLUSIVELY ON FLOATS IN A CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT.
