## Discrepancy

HOSE FOUND BROKEN DURING THE PACKING PROCEDURE.  HOSE WAS FOUND BROKEN AT END NEAR ASPIRATOR CONNECTION DURING MAINTENANCE OF THE SLIDE IN THE SHOP.  PROBABLE CAUSES COULD BE MISHANDLING DURING TRANSPORTATION OR  THAT THE ROUTING OF THE HOSE DURING THE PREVIOUS SLIDE PACKING WAS INCORRECT AND THAT RESULTED IN ITS BREAKAGE. HOSE WAS REPLACED.
