## Discrepancy

(CAN) THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF SUCH A DEFECT NOTED BY THE SAME OPERATOR WITHIN THE PAST FEW WEEKS. THE SWAGED SWIVEL JOINT ON THE THROTTLE CONTROL WAS NOTED TO BE WORN TO THE POINT WHERE THE BALL END COULD BE REMOVED FROM ITS SWAGED SOCKET WITH EASE. DEFECT WAS DISCOVERED DURING ROUTINE INSPECTION.
