## Discrepancy

DURING CLIMBOUT FROM RJTY AT FL390 NUMBER THREE ENGINE FLAMED OUT.  THE CREW DESCENDED TO FL320 WITH IGNITERS IN BOTH AND OVERRIDE IN ALL ENGINES.

MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE ENGINE IAW CFM56 MM 71-00-00 FAULT TREE 51.  ALL STATIC CHECKS WERE GOOD.  THE FUEL FILTER WAS INSPECTED AND NO CONTAMINATION WAS FOUND.  THE OPERATIONAL CHECK WAS GOOD AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
