## Discrepancy

DURING CLIMB OUT FROM FIREFIGHTING DROP,  THE CREW NOTICED A REAR OIL SYSTEM CHIP LIGHT ON THE RT RADIAL ENGINE.  THE ENGINE WAS SHUTDOWN AND SECURED AND A IFE DECLARED.  THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO BASE WITH AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING.  UPON EXAMINING THE CHIP DETECTOR AND INSPECTING THE OIL FILTER SCREENS, NO METAL CONTAMINATION WAS FOUND.
