## Discrepancy

(CAN) FOLLOWING ONE FLIGHT, LT THROTTLE WAS VERY STICKY ON GROUND, NO PROBLEM IN FLIGHT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE REAR CARGO CEILING PANEL OBSTRUCTING THE LT ENGINE PUSH/PULL CABLE QUADRANT.  THE CEILING PANEL WAS KINKED BY LUGGAGE.  STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR THE PANEL/INSTALLATION CONFORMITY.
