## Discrepancy

THREE SKIN DENTS WERE FOUND AT APPROX FS 1090 TO 1100 AT STRINGER 18L.  THE DIMENSIONS OF THE DENTS WERE BEYOND SRM ALLOWABLE DAMAGE.  THE THREE DAMAGE LOCATIONS HAVE BEEN CUT OUT WITH DIMENSIONS OF APPROX 2.0 X 1.5, 2.0 X 1.0, AND 1.0 X 1.0.  THIS ER/A WILL AUTHORIZE USING ONE EXTERNAL SRM REPAIR DUE TO CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE 3 DENTS, DAL B727 SRM 53-30-3, FIGURE 3.
