## Discrepancy

(CAN) BOTH THRUST LEVERS APPEARED TO STICK (AS IF THEY WERE IN A DETENT) AT FLIGHT IDLE AT TOP OF DECENT. THEY WERE VERY STIFF TO MOVE FORWARD FROM THAT POSITION. STICKING WAS ACCOMPANIED BY AN AUTO THROTTLE DISCONNECT. THROTTLE CLUTCH ASSY REPLACED  AND OPERATION CHECKED SERVICEABLE AS PER AMM.
