## Discrepancy

THE RADIUS ON THE GEAR ACTUATOR HOUSING THAT HOUSES THE SEGMENTED GEAR CRACKED ALONG THE FWD BOLT HOLE AND ALLOWED THE RACK TO JUMP A TOOTH WHEN RETRACTING THE GEAR.  UPON BRINGING THE GEAR DOWN FOR LANDING THE RT GEAR DIDN'T COME INTO PLACE.  A PASSENGER WAS ABLE TO PHYSICALLY PULL THE RIGHT LANDING GEAR INTO A DOWN AND LOCKED POSITION AND THEY LANDED NORMALLY.
