## Discrepancy

DURING INSPECTION, THE FUSELAGE SKIN WAS FOUND CORRODED ALONG THE S-26L LAP JOINT AT STA 700.  REMOVAL OF THE CORROSION RESULTED IN A 3 INCH WIDE BY 10 INCH LONG CUT OUT IN THE OVERLAPPING SKIN ONLY.  A PREVIOUS REPAIR DOUBLER IS LOCATED WITHIN 2 INCHES OF THIS REPAIR.  IN ACCORDANCE WITH B727 SRM 53-30-3 FIG 14, THE SKIN WAS REPAIRED.
