## Discrepancy

UPON LANDING ROLL-OUT, AIRCRAFT SLOWED TO APPROXIMATELY 20 KNOTS.  THE LEFT MAIN GEAR SEPARATED THE AIRCRAFT.  THREE PASSENGERS ON BOARD THE AIRCRAFT STATED THE LANDING WAS VERY SMOOTH.  POST-ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION REVEALED WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN A SMALL FRACTURE IN THE LEFT MAIN GEAR SPRING WHERE IT ATTACHES TO THE AIRCRAFT.
