## Discrepancy

BELL PITCH CHANGE LINK ANTIROTATIONAL BRACKETS CAME IN CONTACT WITH AIRCONDITIONER CONDENSER DURING A NORMAL LANDING, RESULTING IN BENT REPHAZING LEVERS (FLIGHT CONTROL).  PROBABLE CAUSE:  TRANSMISSION HAS A GREATER AMOUNT OF TRAVEL ON ITS PYLON MOUNTS, THAN THERE IS CLEARANCE BETWEEN ROTATING COMPONENTS AND FIXED CONDENSER.   RECOMMENDATIONS:  PROVIDE ENOUGH CLEARANCE TO CONDENSER, SO THAT TRANSMISSION MOVEMENT CAN NOT CAUSE CONTACT.
