## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING CRUISE, THE CREW OBSERVED THE NR 2 GENERATOR GO OFF LINE WITH AN INCREASE IN ENG TEMP.  IT WAS SHUTDOWN AND A SINGLE ENG LANDING FOLLOWED. POST FLIGHT INSP FOUND THE COMPRESSOR HARD TO ROTATE. THE ENGINE WILL BE REMOVED AND FORWARDED FOR INVESTIGATION AND REPAIRS. MFG WILL CONTINUE INVESTIGATING THE EVENT AND ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE ONCE ESTABLISHED.
