## Discrepancy

THE CESSNA R182 LANDED AND TAXIED ONTO THE PARKING RAMP.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS COVERED WITH ENGINE OIL.  VISUAL INSPECTION REVEALED A HOLE IN THE LOWER FRONT NOSE COWLING, A DAMAGED PROPELLER BLADE AND BENT CYLINDER FINS ON NR 1 CYLINDER.  AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION, THE PROPELLER GOVERNOR IDLER GEAR SHAFT, PN LW-14021, AND PLUG, PN LW-13896, WERE DISCOVERED MISSING.  THE PLUG THREADS WERE STRIPED AND IT APPEARED THE SET SCREW, PN AN565B1032H5, WAS NEVER ENGAGED IN THE PROP GOVERNOR SHAFT.
