## Discrepancy

DURING CLIMB THE HORIZONTAL STABILIZER JAMMED.  FLIGHT CREW PERFORMED COM PROCEDURE AND WAS ABLE TO RELEASE STAB BRAKE.  FLIGHT RETURNED TO MSP AND MADE AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING.  MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE PRIMARY STABILIZER TRIM ACTUATOR, AUTOPILOT TRIM SERVO, AND STABILIZER TRIM BRAKE ASSEMBLY.  OPERATIONAL AND RIG CHECK OK.
