## Discrepancy

DFW - FLT 3657 - FUMES IN AIRCRAFT BURNS THROAT, EYES, AND LUNGS.  GROUND RAN AIRCRAFT FOR 15 MINUTES.  NO FUMES NOTED.  AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.  NOTE:  AIRCRAFT HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN WRITTEN UP ON THIS DAY FOR HOT CABIN/WEAK AIRFLOW. MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE ACM RUBBER ELBOW/DUCTS ON BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES.  THIS MAY HAVE BEEN SOME TYPE OF RESIDUAL OR BURN-OFF.  (X)
