## Discrepancy

DURING A SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE EVENT MAINTENANCE FOUND A CRACK ON THE ENGINE INLET RING AT THE 12 OCLOCK POSITION.  THE CRACK WAS APPROX .67 INCH LONG AND TRANSECTED THE SCREW HOLE FROM THE AFT EDGE OF THE RING.  MAINTENANCE IS REPLACING THE INLET RING.  THE SDR WILL BE UPDATED UPON COMPLETION OF THE CORRECTIVE ACTION.
