## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING DESCENT, ENGINE POWER COULD NOT BE REDUCED BELOW 1000 LBS TORQUE.  THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO BASE AND THE PILOT SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN IN FLIGHT AND ACCOMPLISHED A SINGLE ENGINE LANDING.  SUBSEQUENT INSPECTION DETERMINED A DEFECTIVE OVERSPEED GOVERNOR AS THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM.
