## Discrepancy

(CAN) FOLLOWING LANDING, IT WAS DISCOVERED BY FLIGHT CREW THAT THE LH WING (SECOND FROM OUTBOARD) DEICE BOOT WAS RUPTURED. MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE LE SECTION/BOOT AND FUNCTION TESTED THE SYSTEM SERVICEABLE. THE AIRCRAFT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY RELEASED FOR SERVICE. THE AIRCRAFT HAD RECENTLY EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR FAILURE OF THE ADJACENT (FURTHEST OUTBOARD) BOOT. THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN TESTED SERVICEABLE (AS PER AMM) BUT AN ADDITIONAL REVIEW WILL BE PERFORMED TO CONFIRM SYSTEM OPERATION.
