## Discrepancy

WHEN SLIDE OPENED THERE WAS A SANDBAG AND SCREWDRIVER PACKING INSIDE SLIDE.  COMPONENT SHOP MAINTENANCE QUALITY ISSUE.  SHOP MECHANIC TRAINING COULD BE THE PROBABLE CAUSE.  SHOP THAT PERFORMED THIS DISCREPANT PACKING NO LONGER EXISTS.  SLIDE IS NOW MAINTAINED BY AN OSV SHOP. PACKING DISCREPANCY IS CONSIDERED AN ISOLATED INCIDENT.
