What was found
UPON COMPLETION OF INSTALLATION OF A NEW AIRBUS LEFT HAND WINDSHIELD ASSEMBLY, PART NUMBER 350A25137403, SERIAL NUMBER 1745 THE PROTECTIVE PLASTIC COVERING WAS REMOVED FROM THE EXTERIOR OF THE WINDSHIELD. AFTER REMOVAL OF PROTECTIVE PLASTIC COVERING IT WAS DISCOVERED DURING A FINAL INSPECTION THAT THE NEW WINDSHIELD WAS DEFECTIVE. THERE APPEARS TO BE A "WAVE" IN THE PRIMARY FIELD OF VIEW THAT CREATES A DISTORTION THAT IS VERY OBVIOUS ONCE DETECTED.
