## Discrepancy

FLIGHT WAS EN ROUTE AND APPROXIMATELY FORTY MILES FROM DESTINATION WHEN AN UNUSUAL FUEL QUANTITY IMBALANCE WAS EXPERIENCED AND THE FUEL QUANTITY TEST FUNCTION BECAME INOPERATIVE.  THE CAPTAIN DECLARED A FUEL EMERGENCY AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE RIGHT MASTER FUEL QUANTITY INDICATOR.  OPERATIONAL CHECK OK.
