## Discrepancy

DURING CRUISE, THE ENGINE LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING ANNUNCIATED AND THE PILOT SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN IN FLIGHT.  A SUBSEQUENT INSPECTION WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY CAUSE AND THE ENGINE WAS REMOVED FOR INVESTIGATION.  THE ENGINE HAD EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATION AND PILOT-COMMANDED IN-FLIGHT SHUT-DOWN TWO WEEKS PRIOR.  P&WC WILL MONITOR INVESTIGATION OF THE EVENT AND WILL ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE ONCE DETERMINED.
