## Discrepancy

PDX - FLIGHT 2253 - ON APPROACH, THE FIRST OFFICER REPORTED THE RUDDER PEDALS STUCK WHEN EXECUTING CROSSWIND LANDING INPUTS.  THE RUDDER WAS FULLY OPERATIONAL ON LANDING ROLLOUT.  NO ASSOCIATED LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT RUDDER CABLE RUNS, AND RUDDER PACK ASSEMBLY.  NO DISCREPANCIES WERE NOTED.  THE RUDDER CONTROLS AND INPUTS WERE INSPECTED FROM THE COCKPIT TO THE EMPENNAGE AND THE AUTO PILOT SYSTEM.  ALL SYSTEMS,OPERATIONAL CHECKS, AND SUBSEQUENT CHECK FLIGHT WERE GOOD.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
