## Discrepancy

TAIL DE-ICE BOOTS WOULD NOT INFLATE.  FOUND DE-ICE SUPPLY LINE COLLAPSED AND PINCHED CLOSED DUE TO HEAT DUCT BELOW FLOOR TO HAVE A SPLIT SEAM ALLOWING HOT AIR TO HEAT PLASTIC DE-ICE HOSE, SOFTEN, THEN BE SUCKED CLOSED FROM THE NORMAL VACUUM SUPPLIED TO BOOTS.  REPAIRED BY REPLACING DE-ICE SUPPLY HOSE AND PERFORMING RED GREEN REPAIR TO THE HEAT DUCT.
