## Discrepancy

ON SHORT FINAL, RT ENGINE FIRE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. LIGHT EXTINGUISHED ITSELF DURING THE FLARE FOR LANDING. LANDING WAS UNEVENTFUL AND ENGINE WAS SECURED ONCE CLEAR OF THE ACTIVE RUNWAY.  NO EVIDENCE OF FIRE OR OVERHEATING WAS FOUND.  THE FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM TESTED OK PER MAINT MANUAL.  REPLACED ONE DETECTOR AS A PRECAUTIONARY PROCEDURE.  SYSTEM OPERATIONALLY TESTED OK.
