## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING INSPECTION FOUND RT TAILET DE-ICE BOOT NOT INFLATING.  HAD POSITIVE INDICATION, DE-ICE BOOT SHOULD BE INFLATED.  FOUND DE-ICE LINE TO TAILET MELTED BY TAIL LOG LIGHT.  WHEN DE-ICE LINE MELTED IT SEALED LINE COMPLETELY NOT ALLOWING PRESSURE SENSOR TO TRIP, THUS GIVING FALSE INDICATION OF TAILET INFLATING.
