## Discrepancy

AFTER TAKEOFF, ON A RE-POSITION FIGHT WITH NO PAXS, THE CREW REPORTED AN OIL ODOR IN THE CABIN.  THE CREW FOLLOWED PROCEDURES RETURNING & LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  AFTER SHUTDOWN A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE RT ENG REVEALED TURBINE OIL IN THE INTAKE & EXHAUST AREAS.  TROUBLESHOOTING IS CONTINUING.  CORRECTIVE ACTION TO FOLLOW.
