## Discrepancy

DURING AN SCHEDULED INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE FOUND THE LEFT WING CENTER MID RIB AT WS 83.00 TO HAVE A CRACK AT THE TOP APPROXIMATELY FIVE INCHES ACROSS.  THE CRACK WAS LOCATED BETWEEN THE FORWARD AND AFT POWER PACK MOUNTS AND A REPAIR WAS MADE.  THE RIB REINFORCMENT P/N NR 114-12003315 WAS ALSO CRACKED ON TOP.  THIS IS THE FIFTH REPAIR AND IT IS LIKELY THE REST OF OUR FLEET WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM DUE TO INSUFFICENT ENGINEERING.  (M)
