## Discrepancy

STRINGER 28R WAS CUT AT STA 980 IN ORDER TO REMOVE CORROSION.  THE AFT SECTION OF THE STRINGER, TO STA 1010 WAS REPLACED AND A NEW STRINGER SECTION WAS SPLICED IN.  THE STRINGER WAS TOO THICK TO BE REPAIRED PER THE SRM.  THE REPAIR WILL CONSIST OF SPLICING IN A NEW SECTION OF THE STRINGER WITH A NESTED HAT CHANNEL.  THIS REPAIR WAS APPROVED BY FAA/ DER FORM 8110-3, DER DESIGNATION SO-889, DATED 6-20-97.
