## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING CRUISE, AT BEGINNING OF DESCENT, THE ENGINE EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE. THE DROP WAS SLOW BUT CONSTANT UNTIL YELLOW ARC.  THE FLIGHT WAS DIVERTED  AND AFTER APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES THE PRESSURE WENT BACK CLOSE TO NORMAL.  NO LOSS OF POWER OCCURRED AND THE ACFT LANDED SAFELY.  TROUBLESHOOTING IS ON-GOING.
