## Discrepancy

NR 3 ENG DID NOT RESPOND TO THROTTLE MOVEMENT DURING DESCENT, FLAMEOUT, FUEL FLOW WAS ZERO.  EGT AND EPR WERE ZERO AND NOT RESPONDING.  N1 AND N2 DISPLAYED WINDMILLING INDICATION, THIS LASTED FOR 2 TO 3 MINUTES.  PRIOR TO COMMENCING THE ENG FAILURE FOLLOW UP CHECKLIST THE ENG BEGAN RESPONDING NORMALLY.  REPLACED NR 3 ENGINE FUEL CONTROL AND FUEL PUMP.
