What was found
THE UPPER RUDDER WAS FOUND WITH MULTIPLE CRACKS ON THE RT SKIN PANEL BETWEEN RS 220 AND 242. THE PANEL WAS ORIGINALLY A BONDED ALUMINUM ASSEMBLY WITH BEADED STIFFENERS, BUT HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPLACED WITH A REPAIR PANEL OF DIFFERENT CONSTRUCTION. THE PANEL HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A NEW SKIN PANEL WITH ANGLE STIFFENERS IN PLACE OF THE ORIGINAL BEADS. THE REPAIR HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED PER ER/A 363680-14, REV A.
