## Discrepancy

CREW REPORTED, A NR 3 ENGINE FLAME-OUT DURING FLIGHT LEVEL CHANGE AND THROTTLE RETARDED.  ENGINE RESTART AND OPERATION WAS NORMAL.  *S/D*  NOTHING WAS FOUND DURING TROUBLESHOOTING THAT COULD BE  RELATED TO THE FLAME-OUT.  THE AIRPLANE WAS FLOWN TO ANOTHER STATION FOR PRECAUTIONARY REPLACEMENT OF THE MAIN ENGINE CONTROL.  A SUBSEQUENT BENCH TEST OF THE REMOVED MAIN ENGINE CONTROL IDENTIFIED NO ABNORMALITIES.
