## Discrepancy

(CAN) AFTER TAKE-OFF THE ENGINE (FADEC FAIL) WARNING ANNUNCIATED.  THE ENGINE WAS SHUTDOWN IN FLIGHT AND THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO POINT OF DEPARTURE.  INSPECTION REVEALED FAULT CODES ON BOTH FADEC CHANNELS.  THE FADEC, FUEL CONTROL UNIT AND BLEED VALVES WERE SUBSEQUENTLY REMOVED FOR INVESTIGATION.  MFG WILL INVESTIGATE THE INCIDENT AND ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE, ONCE ESTABLISHED.
