## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS NOT GROUNDED: WHILE ACCOMPLISHING TASK CARD 26L00025010 TO REPLACE SLIDE S/N A9044. REPLACEMENT SLIDE S/N A8100 WAS FOUND TO BE PACKED IMPROPERLY ALSO SLIDE COVER WOULD NOT ATTACH PROPERLY. THIS WAS THE L4 POSITION. MAINTENANCE REMOVED THE DEFECTIVE SLIDE AND RETURNED IT BACK TO THE STOCKROOM AS BEING BAD FROM STOCK SO IT CAN BE SENT OUT TO THE REPAIR VENDOR. MAINTENANCE INSTALLED A SERVICEABLE SLIDE IN THE L4 POSITION PER TASK CARD 26L00025010.
