                   1. In accordance with instructions in Bombardier Repair Drawing (RD) RD8-55- 669 Issue 3, dated 17 March 1999, cut small samples from the affected bonded horizontal stabiliser skins as test coupons for bonding integrity testing.

b.    Mark the cut samples in accordance with instructions in RD8-55-669 Issue 3.

c.    Send the cut samples to Bombardier Aerospace at the address shown in RD8- 55-669 Issue 3, for testing.
