## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS NOT GROUNDED: FLIGHT DECK DOOR STICKS SHUT AND IS HARD TO GET OPEN. YOU ALSO HAVE TO SLAM IT TO CLOSE IT. MAINTENANCE INSPECTED COCKPIT DOOR AND FRAME PER AMM 52-21-00 AND FOUND LOOSE SCREWS ON STATIONARY DOOR FRAME AND UPPER VALENCE. SECURED SCREWS AND CLEANED LOCKING MECHANISM PER AMM 52-21-00. OPS CHECK GOOD.
