Source: SDR 2004FA0000052Part: FITTING — LOOSE (ENGINE MOUNT) · airframe 2,751 hrs
DURING A RECENT INSPECTION IT WAS NOTED THAT THE LOCK FASTENERS SECURING THE STEEL LOWER ENGINE MOUNT ATTACH FITTINGS, INBOARD AND OUTBOARD, TO THE FUSELAGE WERE EXTREMELY LOOSE. ALL OF THE LOCK FASTENERS WERE CHANGED TO THE NEXT SIZE UP. ACCESS TO AREA MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO INSPECT.
