## Discrepancy

(CAN) PHASE INSPECTION IN PROGRESS, NOTED A NOISE AND MOVEMENT ON RT ELEVATOR OTBD HINGE.  INVESTIGATED FURTHER FOUND WEAR IN OTBD HINGE FITTING ATTACH HOLES. PART HAD BEEN SUBJECT TO MANDATORY SB 2132 WHICH HAD BEEN INCORPORATED.  FIRST OVERSIZED BOLTS HAD BEEN INSTALLED.  BRACKET HOLES ELONGATED SO THAT SECOND OVERSIZE MAY NOT FIT.
