## Discrepancy

THE NR 1 ENGINE OIL QUANTITY AND PRESSURE BEGAN TO DECREASE DURING CRUISE. THE ENGINE WAS SHUTDOWN AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS DIVERTED WHERE IT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE STARTER SIGHT GLASS HOUSING WAS FOUND SHEARED. THE NR 1 ENGINE STARTER WAS REMOVED AND REPLACED AND OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD.
