## Discrepancy

ENROUTE FROM DCA TO BTV, THE NUMBER TWO BATTERY OVERHEATED.  THE CREW CALLED DISPATCH AND DIVERTED TO IPT.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS THEN FERRIED TO PIT WHERE MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND REPLACED THE NUMBER TWO BATTERY IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 24-00-00.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE PERFORMED AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
