## Discrepancy

BEFORE CONNECTING BATTERY, SMELLED AN ELECTRICAL BURNING ODOR IN THE AFT TAIL CONE AREA.   INSPECTED TAILCONE FOR ANY EVIDENCE OF CHARRING OR BURNING.  RAN AIR COMPRESSOR FOR APPROX 1 HOUR TO DETERMINE ROOT CAUSE OF ODOR.  NO ODORS PRESENT AT THIS TIME.  WORKED IAW MM 21-52-00.  INSPECTED ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND FOUND NOTHING LOOSE OR EVIDENCE OF DAMAGE.
