## Discrepancy

DURING DESCENT, COCKPIT FILLED WITH CONDENSATION FOG AND ACRID ODOR.  CONDENSATION AND ODOR DISAPPEARED WHEN PACK NR 1 WAS TURNED OFF.  FOG WAS BAD ENOUGH COCKPIT VISIBILITY WAS GREATLY REDUCED.  DEFERRED NR 1 AIR CONDITIONING PACK AS PER MEL 21-51-01, DMI 15439 ASSIGNED CAT-C.  PLACARD INSTALLED.  CHECKED AND FOUND WATER SEPARATOR COALESCENT BAG INSTALLED INCORRECTLY.
