## Discrepancy

DURING PRE-FLIGHT INSPECTION THE FLIGHT CREW REPORTED THE PASSENGER DOOR WAS HARD TO OPEN.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT FOR A FERRY FLIGHT TO STL.  MAINTENANCE IN STL INSPECTED AND REMOVED THE PASSENGER DOOR INTERNAL HANDLE AND RE-INDEXED THE STRIKER ARM AND ROLLER.  RE-INSTALLED THE INTERNAL HANDLE AND THE DOOR OPS CHECKED GOOD.
