## Discrepancy

WHILE ON A SHORT FINAL, THE PILOT DETECTED AN ODOR THAT SMELLED LIKE BURNING RUBBER WITH NO ASSOCIATED SMOKE.  UPON THE POST FLIGHT INSP THE PILOT NOTICED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING BELT SOME NOTICEABLE SHREDDING, BUT STILL HAD TENSION.  THE MECHANIC WAS CALLED TO THE SCENE TO INSPECT THE SYS.  THE MECHANIC PROCEEDED TO DEFER TO AIR CONDITIONING SYS TO RETURN THE ACFT TO SERVICE.
