## Discrepancy

WHILE CONDUCTING A 100 HR INSP IT WAS IDENTIFIED THAT 2 LOWER FLOAT STRUT FITTINGS WERE CRACKED.   THESE FITTINGS ARE INSPECTED EVERY 100 HRS AND PREVIOUS INSPECTIONS DID NOT IDENTIFY ANY ABNORMALITIES.  THE FITTINGS WERE REPLACED WITH NEW UNITS.  ALL OTHER FITTINGS WERE INSPECTED AND NO FURTHER DEFECTS WERE NOTED.
