## Discrepancy

WHILE CONDUCTING INITIAL INSPECTION, BOTH AFT WING TO FUSELAGE ATTACH BOLTS WERE FOUND SLIGHTLY RUSTED.  DAMAGE WAS NEGLIGIBLE.  THESE BOLTS AS WELL AS FORWARD ATTACH BOLTS AND UPPER AND LOWER STRUT ATTACH BOLTS WERE APPARENTLY INSTALLED DRY.  THIS HARDWARE SHOULD ALL BE INSTALLED WITH A RUST INHIBITOR OR GREASE.
