54-06-02 MARTIN: Applies to All Model 202 Aircraft. Compliance required at next overhaul but not to exceed the next 1,000 operating hours. Several instances have been found of unsatisfactory wing scarf splice bushing installations which result in applying undesirable bending loads on the bolts because of incomplete lining of the holes. To eliminate this condition, inspect the wing lower chord scarf splices at wing Stations 187 L.H. and R.H. If a bushing is found that does not meet the length requirements specified in Martin 202 Service Instruction Letter No. 29, that bushing must be removed and a correct one installed in accordance with Service Instruction Letter No. 29, before the airplane is returned to service. (Martin S. I. L. No. 29 covers this same subject.)
