## Discrepancy

(CAN) AFTER LANDING THE PILOTS SELECTED FLAPS TO THE UP POSITION AND THE FLAP CIRCUIT BREAKER POPPED. THE FLAP CIRCUIT BREAKER WAS RESET AND THE FLAPS WERE SELECTED UP NORMALLY. WHEN THE FLAPS WERE RESELECTED TO THE DOWN POSITION THE CIRCUIT BREAKER POPPED AGAIN. THE FLAP TRANSMISSION AND MOTOR ASSEMBLY WERE REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.
