Required Actions

Inspect bonding jumpers for corrosion, sealant disbond, and insufficient sealant coverage; take corrective actions if necessary. Optionally, inspect bonding brackets for corrosion damage and take corrective actions if necessary, which would terminate repetitive inspections. For certain airplanes, install specific bonding jumpers and replace single-tabbed brackets with two-tabbed brackets.
