## Discrepancy

A SCRATCH AND DENT WAS FOUND IN THE FUSELAGE SKIN JUST BELOW THE C1 CARGO DOORWAY EXTENDING FROM FS 460 TO FS 500. AN EXISTING REPAIR WAS FOUND AT THE FORWARD LOWER CORNER OF THE DOORWAY. THIS REPAIR WAS REMOVED AND AN EXTERNAL ALUMINUM DOUBLER TRIPLER AND FILLER WERE INSTALLED OVER THE PREVIOUS REPAIR AREA AND INCORPORATING THE CUT OUT DENT/SCRATCH AREA. WORK WAS DONE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ER/A 385217-14.
