## Discrepancy

THE L-1 DOOR EMERGENCY ESCAPE SLIDE PARTIALLY DEPLOYED DURING FLIGHT AND THEN DEFLATED.  THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED.  THE FLIGHT WAS CONTINUED TO ONT (ITS SCHEDULED STATION) WHERE IT LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER PROBLEM.  THE SLIDE WAS REMOVED AND REPLACED IAW MM 25-66-01-400-801 AND 803.  ENGINEERING CONCLUDED THAT THE SLIDE PACK INFLATED AS A RESULT OF THE INFLATION VALVE BEING IN A HAIR TRIGGER MODE AS A RESULT OF A PRETENSIONED FIRING LINE CABLE LIKELY CAUSED BY UNINTENTIONAL MISHANDLING PREVIOUSLY.
