no cracks can be found.

Remarks: _______________________________________

3) Eliminate surface damage by blend out but stop before
exceeding those rework limits with no flight restrictions
as per relevant SRM Chapter. ______

4) If damage is eliminated, perform surface protection IAW
SRM Chapter 51-75-12 (Permanent Repair). ______

and check visually for damage.

INSTRUCTIONS

Note:
In case of findings increase diameter in steps of
0.4mm (0.016in.) and re-inspection maximum allowable
diameter is 6.35mm (0.250in.).

b. Install blind fastener as per fastener Table 1 (Sheet 10)
and refer to A320 SRM 51-42-11. _______
b.1. In a maximum area of diameter 25.4mm (1.0in.)
multiple small damage may be treated in the same way,
provided that a correct fastener installation is ensured
(minimum 2.0 pitch where D is the maximum burn mark
diameter see Example 6 (Sheet 9)). _______
For single damage sizes greater than 6.35mm
(0.250in.), perform temporary repair IAW A320
SRM Chapter 53-00-11.

c. Perform surface protection IAW A320 SRM Chapter
51-75-12. ______

Note:
Applicable for burn marks on skin caused by lightning
strikes located at a distance 15mm (0.591in.) from an
existing fastener (refer to Example 5, Sheet 8) and for
a skin thickness up to 3.2mm (0.126in.) and effective
in accordance with Figure 210.
In case access to the inside of the fuselage skin has
been made or is possible at the affected area it is
highly recommended to perform a permanent repair.
