## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS NOT GROUNDED: DURING A SCHEDULED REPLACEMENT OF THE L1 DOOR SLIDE MAINTENANCE FOUND THE REPLACEMENT SLIDE DAMAGED AND COULD NOT BE INSTALLED ON THE AIRCRAFT. MAINTENANCE RE-INSTALLED THE ORIGINAL SLIDE AND RETURNED THE DAMAGED SLIDE BACK TO STORES AS BAD FROM STOCK SO IT CAN BE SENT OUT FOR REPAIR.
