## Discrepancy

DURING PRE-FLIGHT PREPARATION, INFLIGHT NOTICED L-2 DOOR SLIDE HAD AN UNUSUAL INSTALLATION.  UPON FURTHER EVALUATION OF THE SITUATION, MAINTENANCE DETERMINED THAT THE DOOR SLIDE WAS NOT PROPERLY CONNECTED AND THE PIN HOLDING THE GIRT BAR ASSY TO THE SLIDE HAD BECOME DETACHED.  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE L-2 DOOR SLIDE.
