## Discrepancy

(CAN) ENROUTE TO DESTINATION, THE F/A NOTICED THAT 1 OF THE RT MLG DOOR WAS NOT FULLY CLOSED.  UPON ARRIVAL, THE CAPTAIN REPORTED THAT THE CENTER DOOR AFT SECTION WAS DETACHED FROM THE NACELLE.  A MAINTENANCE TEAM TRAVELLED ON A AOG TRIP AND FOUND THE CENTER DOOR AFT HINGE BEARING HAD MIGRATED OUT FROM THE HINGE BRACKET.  THE BEARING WAS REPLACED, THE AREA INSPECTED, DOOR RETRACTIONS PERFORMED AND THE ACFT RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
