## Discrepancy

DURING THE CLIMB, THE CREW REPORTED A MAIN ELEVATOR TRIM FAIL.  THE CREW ENGAGED THE STANDBY TRIM AND HAD NO FURTHER PROBLEMS.  AFTER ARRIVAL IN PIT, MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND REPLACED THE 59CC RELAY IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 27-00-00.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE PERFORMED AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
