## Discrepancy

THE FUSELAGE SKIN WAS FOUND WITH A 1 INCH LONG CRACK JUST ABOVE STRINGER 16R AT FS 522.  THE CRACK WAS ROUTED OUT AND A REPAIR DOUBLER INSTALLED PER B737 SRM 53-30-3, FIG 1.  BECAUSE THE REPAIR EXTENDED UNDR A WING-TO-FUSELAGE PANEL   THE REPAIR WAS DOCUMENTED PER ER/A 366606-14 TO ENSURE DTA EVALUATION WILL BE PERFORMED.
