What was found

THE RIGHT FORWARD CABIN DOOR POST SHIELD WAS FOUND BUCKLED. UPON REMOVAL, FOUND THE FRESH AIR HOSE RUNNING DOWN THE DOOR POST WAS NOT ALLOWING THE SHIELD TO SEAT FULLY IN ITS CORRECT POSITION. THE AIR VENT HOSE WAS FLATENED TO PROVIDE SUFFICIENT CLEARANCE FOR THE SHIELD TO FIT PROPERLY.
