## Discrepancy

DURING MAINTENANCE FOUND THE RUDDER UPPER SUPPORT CHANNEL CRACKED WHERE IT ATTACHES TO THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.  THIS AIRCRAFT HAD SL560-27-13 COMPLIED WITH 826.6 HOURS PRIOR TO FINDING THE CRACKED CHANNEL. THIS SL UPGRADED THE ATTACHING HARDWARE BUT DOES NOT CHANGE THE BRACKET.  REPLACED BRACKET AND HARDWARE WITH NEW.  AN SCR HAS BEEN SUBMITTED TO MFG UNDER NR 306488.
