## Discrepancy

THE AIRCRAFT IS ON ROUTINE 100 HR INSPECTION.  A CRACK WAS NOTED ON THE LOWER LT ENGINE MOUNT BRACKET.  A DIE PENETRANT CHECK REVEALED A TOTAL OF THREE CRACKS.  MFG HAS BEEN CONTACTED REGARDING THESES CRACKS, BUT WERE NOT INTERESTED AT ALL.  AS THIS PART IS SUCH A LOW TIME ITEM (209HRS) MAYBE A FLEET WIDE CHECK SHOULD BE INITIATED.
