## Discrepancy

(CAN) THE ENGINE HAD AN INFLIGHT SHUTDOWN.  THE FUEL CONTROL UNIT, FCU, SUPPLY TUBE FROM THE FCU TO THE FLOW DIVIDER AT THE B-NUT FURRELL SLEEVE, WAS SEVERED FROM THE B-NUT.  IT HAS BEEN CONFIRMED FROM THE PILOT THAT THIS IS THE 3RD OCCURRENCE IN THE LAST 1.5 HRS OF FLIGHT AND A TOTAL OF 3 TUBES HAVE FRACTURED, THE ORIGINAL AND 2 NEW LINES.  A VIBE SURVEY IS PLANNED FOR TOMORROW.
