## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING AN ROUTINE INSPECTION, THE PROPELLER WAS FOUND LEAKING. PART OF THE INSPECTION CALLS OUT TO ENSURE THERE IS NO RED DYE LEAKING FROM THE PROP HUB ASSEMBLY. THE PROP HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE AIRCRAFT AND SENT TO THE OVERHAUL FACILITY.  THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE PROPELLER HAS LEAKED.  HAVE ASKED FOR THE HUB ASSEMBLY TO BE NDT TO ENSURE THERE IS NO CRACKS.   INSTALLED A LOANED PROP AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO THE FLIGHT LINE.
