## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING A ROUTINE COMPANY FLIGHT, THE NR 1 ENGINE STARTED RUNNING ROUGH.  THE AIRCRAFT LANDED AND CALLED MAINTENANCE.  UPON INSPECTION THE LT MAG WAS FOUND SEPARATED IN TWO, THE REAR HALF WAS STILL BOLTED TO THE ENGINE PAD AND THE FRONT HALF WAS HANGING BY THE IGNITION LEADS.  THE MAG WAS REPLACED AND TIMED WITH THE AIRCRAFT AND RETURNED TO SERVICE.
