## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON LEVELING FROM CLIMB, THE ENGINE LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING ANNUNCIATED.  THE ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN IN FLIGHT AND THE AIRCAFT DIVERTED.  POST-FLIGHT INSPECTION REVEALED THE ENGINE OIL FILTER TO BE BLOCKED BY CARBON PARTICLES.  PWC WILL MONITOR INVESTIGATION OF THE EVENT AND WILL ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE ONCE ESTABLISHED.
