## Discrepancy

FIVE UNITS OF RUDDER LEFT RUDDER TRIM WAS REQUIRED TO COUNTER ADVERSE ROLL TO RIGHT WITH SPEED BRAKES AT FLIGHT DETENT WHILE ON DESCENT INTO LAX.  THE AIRCRAFT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE NR 3 FLIGHT SPOILER CABLE NUMBER WSA2-3 BROKEN.  THE CABLE WAS REPLACED AND THE FLIGHT SPOILERS WERE RIGGED IAW MM 27-61-00.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD.
