## Discrepancy

DURING HEAVY MAINTENANCE: E/F - LOCAL FABRICATION OF S2-101 EDGE TRIM; N961JT; REFERENCES: /1/ AEROMAN EA 25-0008-26 (PART 1 +2+ COVER) /2/ MX-244. DESCRIPTION : DURING A CURRENT HEAVY MAINTENANCE VISIT AT AEROMAN MRO FACILITIES, EXTRUSION PN 603908-1113 WAS FOUND MISSING. REPLACEMENT MATERIAL WAS NOT AVAILABLE THROUGH NORMAL SUPPLY CHANNELS AT THE TIME OF DISCOVERY. IN ORDER TO RESTORE THE AFFECTED AREA BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL CONFIGURATION AND MAINTAIN AIRCRAFT OPERATIONAL SCHEDULE, THE PART WAS LOCALLY FABRICATED USING 7075-T62 ALUMINUM ALLOY MATERIAL. THIS EA IS BEING ISSUED TO PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONS AND SUBSTANTIATION FOR LOCAL FABRICATION OF THE REPLACEMENT EXTRUSION USING BAC1490-2640 EXTRUSION STOCK MANUFACTURED FROM 7075-T62 ALUMINUM ALLOY. THE FABRICATED PART RESTORES THE ORIGINAL FORM, FIT, AND FUNCTION OF THE MISSING EXTRUSION INSTALLATION. THE EXTRUSION IS CONSIDERED A COSMETIC/NON-STRUCTURAL COMPONENT AND HAS NO IMPACT ON AIRCRAFT STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY, LOAD PATHS, SYSTEM OPERATION, OR COMPONENT STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE. THE REPAIR/FABRICATION PERFORMED PER THIS EA WAS EVALUATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH JETBLUE GMM CHAPTER 8.6 AND DETERMINED TO BE A MINOR REPAIR. MINOR REPAIRS UTILIZE STANDARD ACCEPTABLE DATA AND DO NOT REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FAA APPROVAL.  (E/C:A26-375-01)
