## Discrepancy

AFTER TAKEOFF THE SLATS WERE SELECTED TO RETRACT BUT THE AMBER SLAT DISAGREEMENT LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE ACFT EXPERIENCED A VERY SLIGHT ABNORMAL ROLLING TENDENCY TO THE LT.  THE COM PROCEDURES WERE COMPLIED WITH AND THE FLIGHT RETURNED TO A SAFE LANDING BACK AT EWR.  MX FOUND THE RT T-DUCT SUPPORT PADS WERE OUT OF ADJUSTMENT.  THE T-DUCT AND SUPPORT PADS WERE ALL REALIGNED PER AMM AND FUNCTIONALLY CHECKED.  THE ACFT HAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
