## Discrepancy

SHORTLY AFTER LEVELING AT FL430,  SWPS FAULT AMBER CAS CAME ON ALONG WITH THE WHITE, SPOILER FAULT MESSAGE.  THERE WERE YELLOW X'S IN THE FLAP INDICATOR, PITCH TRIM INDICATOR & ON THE STBY SYS THE YELLOW LETTERS, SSEC, IN LOWER LT & YELLOW X JUST LT OF THE ALTITUDE INDICATOR WERE PRESENT.  DESCENDED TO FL 250 & CHECKED PITCH TRIM OPERATION WHICH TESTED NORMAL BUT THE X STAYED SO WE COULDN'T READ THE TRIM SETTING.  ON APPROACH, EXTENDED FLAPS TO 1 THEN 2 WITH NO RESULT.  A VISUAL CHECK CONFIRMED THE FLAPS DID NOT EXTEND.  REMOVED NR 1 FCE & INSTALLED A TESTED FCE.  COMPLETED FLAP RIGGING & OPS CHECKS. CHECKED SATISFACTORY IAW MM 27-03-01.
