## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING FORMATION FLIGHT THE PILOT REDUCED POWER.  WHEN POWER WAS RE-APPLIED THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESPOND INITIALLY TO THROTTLE INPUT.  POWER INCREASED AFTER 7 TO 8 SECONDS.  THE FUEL CONTROL UNIT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY REPLACED.  PWC WILL INVESTIGATE THE INCIDENT AND ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE ONCE ESTABLISHED.
