## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT RELEASED FROM MAINTENANCE.  DEPARTED VPC.  CLIMBING OUT FROM 9,000 FT, RIGHT THROTTLE WOULD NOT RESPOND.  RETURNED TO VPC WITH UNEVENTFUL LANDING.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE THROTTLE PUSH PULL ROD CAME LOOSE AT THE FIREWALL (ROD END SEPARATED FROM THE BARREL).  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND RESECURED ROD END AND FUNCTIONAL CHECK PERFORMED SATISFACTORY.  AIRCRAFT RELEASED AT THIS POINT.
