Narrative:
Upon arrival flight at telluride, col, 2 FAA inspectors inspected aircraft and found 6 panel screws missing and 2 loose screws on the right wing. Both the captain and the first officer conducted a preflight walkaround in denver prior to departure of flight and no screws were found missing. Inspectors also found what appeared to be a missing wing deice boot patch. However, no visible rips or tears existed. Screws were tightened, replaced, or deferred. Missing deice patch was deferred for ferry flight to den. Corrective actions were taken at denver to fix the aircraft.
