During an unscheduled inspection, a mis-installed no-back pawl was discovered on a horizontal stabilizer trim actuator(HSTA). The no-back mechanism is a primary means to prevent back driving of the HSTA, and the motor brake assemblies(MBA) are the secondary means. If not corrected, unavailability of the no-back mechanism in combination with loss of, or degraded HSTA MBA braking capability, could lead to a loss of the aeroplane. 1, record 1, English, - no%2Dback%20mechanism
