## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING AND INSPECTION IN THE LT WING ROOT AREA, IT WAS NOTED THAT THE AILERON TRIM AND AILERON PRIMARY CABLES WERE HEAVILY CORRODED. ONLY LITTLE HAND PRESSURE ON THE TRIM CABLE CAUSED THE CABLE TO BREAK DUE TO IT BEING EXTREMELY BRITTLE. FURTHER INVESTIGATION AND CABLE REPLACEMENT TO BE CARRIED OUT.
