## Discrepancy

DURING IN-FLIGHT OPERATIONS THE PILOT REPORTED AN UNSAT INDICATION OF THE RT ENGINE ANTI-ICE SYS. AFTER REMOVING THE COWLING, THE ANTI-ICE VALVE BLEED AIR SUPPLY LINE CONNECTOR HOSE WAS FOUND TO BE RUPTURED AND COMPLETELY TORN FREE. THE ANTI-ICE VALVE BLEED AIR SUPPLY LINE HAD ALSO CRACKED AROUND THE MOUNTING FLANGE AND COMPLETELY PULLED AWAY FROM THE ANTI-ICE VALVE. HOT BLEED AIR WAS NOW BLOWING DIRECTLY ONTO THE ANTI-ICE VALVE CONNECTOR PLUG WHICH MELTED THE PIN SOLDER AND ALLOWED THE ELECTRICAL WIRE TO PULL OUT OF THE PLUG INTO THE ENGINE BAY. IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED THAT AN AS REMOVED REPLACEMENT BLEED AIR LINE WAS ORDERED AND DURING AN INCOMING INSPECTION FOUND TO BE CRACKED AT THE SAME LOCATION.
