## Discrepancy

ENROUTE FROM AKJ TO AVB, THE FLIGHT CREW NOTICED A DECLINE IN THE MAIN HYDRAULIC QUANTITY SYSTEM. THE FLIGHT CREW FOLLOWED COMPANY PROCEDURES AND CONTINUED TO AVB FOR AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING. MAINTENANCE INSPECT THE AIRCRAFT LOCATING A LOOSE LINE ON THE RIGHT MAIN HYDRAULIC MANIFOLD. MAINTENANCE SECURED THE LINE AND PERFORM A SUCCESSFUL OPERATIONAL CHECK IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MAINTENANCE MANUAL. THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
