## Discrepancy

AFTER DEPARTING FROM KHEF ENROUTE TO MMEX THE CREW NOTICED A FUEL LEAK ON TOP OF THE LH WING COMING OUT OF THE OVER WING FUEL PANEL. THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO KAGS AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. ONCE ON THE GROUND IT WAS VERIFIED THAT THE OVER WING FUEL CAP WAS DEFECTIVE. THE FUEL CAP WAS REPLACED. WE PERFORMED A CHECK FLIGHT TO ENSURE THE FUEL LEAK HAD STOPPED. CHECK FLIGHT SATISFACTORY WITH NO DEFECTS NOTED.
