## Discrepancy

WHILE EN ROUTE, THE CREW OBSERVED THE RT ENGINE LOOSING POWER.  THE CREW ELECTED TO SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE AND DIVERTED, MADE AN UNEVENTFUL SINGLE ENGINE LANDING.  A MX CREW WAS DISPATCHED TO INVESTIGATE.  AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING THE PROBLEM, THE MX CREW DISCOVERED THE RT FUEL CONTROL DRIVE SHAFT SHEARED.  THE FUEL CONTROL WAS REMOVED AND REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.
