## Discrepancy

(CAN) INFLIGHT SHUTDOWN CARRIED OUT ON #1 ENGINE DUE TO LOSS OF OIL QUANTITY. POST FLIGHT INSPECTION FOUND NO OIL IN #1 ENGINE OIL RESERVOIR. OIL WAS COMING FROM THE ENGINE EXHAUST. #1 ENGINE CHANGED. THE OIL LOSS WAS DUE TO #6 BEARING FAILURE AND THE OIL WAS LOST THROUGH THE #6 CARBON SEAL.
