## Discrepancy

ON CLIMBOUT, THE AIRCRAFT WAS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.  THE FLIGHT CREW  SHUT DOWN THE RIGHT ENGINE AND DECLARED AN EMERGENCY.  THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO DULLES AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE PERFORMED A  INSPECTION  AND REPLACED THE PROPELLER IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 61-10-00.  AFTER THE AIRCRAFT WAS FERRIED TO DAYTON, MAINTENANCE ALSO REPLACED THE ENGINE IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 71-02-02.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE PERFORMED AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
