## Discrepancy

HOT - FLT 1311 - AFTER NORMAL GEAR RETRACTION, CREW NOTICED HYDRAULIC PRESSURE LOW.   LIGHTS CAME ON WHEN FLAPS UP WAS SELECTED.  CREW CONFIRMED HYDRAULIC PRESSURE LOW ON HYDRAULIC PRESSURE GAUGE.  GEAR WAS PUMPED DOWN AND AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO STATION WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.  HYDRAULIC ACCUMULATOR HAD CRACKED ON HYDRAULIC FLUID END CAUSING HYDRAULIC FLUID LOSS.  REMOVED AND REPLACED HYDRAULIC ACCUMULATOR, SERVICED AND OPS CHECKED SYSTEM.  SYSTEM OPS CHECKED GOOD.  (X)
