## Discrepancy

DURING A NON-ROUTINE, MAINTENANCE CHECK THE TAIL CONE EMERGENCY EVACUATION SLIDE DEPLOYMENT LANYARDS WERE FOUND TO BE CROSSED.  CROSSED STRAPS COULD PREVENT THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE TAIL CONE SLIDE IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY.  THE ROUTING OF THE LANYARDS WAS CORRECTED, INSPECTED, AND CLEARED FOR REVENUE SERVICE.
