At each periodic inspection, examine the upper wing surface forward of the aileron beam and just outboard of Station 458 joint for the presence of buckles. If serious buckles are found the skin in that area should be replaced and gussets added. After the entire affected area (approximately 5 inches x 36 inches) has been reworked in this manner, no further periodic inspections will be required.
