## Discrepancy

UNABLE TO DISARM EMERGENCY SLIDE. LEVER WOULD NOT MOVE TO FULLY REAR POSITION.  AFTER BEING EXPOSED TO TORRENTIAL RAIN FALL DURING A SDF STOPOVER. THE DOOR WAS FROZEN. AFTER EXPOSURE TO 100 DEGREE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE,  THE DOOR OPS CHECKED NORMAL  EMERGENCY SLIDE IS PINNED. OK FOR CONTINUED SERVICE
