## Discrepancy

AFTER LANDING, DURING TAXI, AIRCRAFT WAS NOT TURNED TO RT SIDE, BEING NECESSARY TO USE A TRUCK TO SEND THE AIRCRAFT TO PLATFORM.  DURING MAINTENANCE REVISION, THE STEERING CABLE WAS DETECTED WITH DAMAGE. THE CABLE 268 WAS BROKEN. DURING OVERNIGHT SERVICE, CABLE 268 WAS REPLACED AND ADJUSTED IAW MM 32-51-03, TEST CORRECT.  DURING OVERNIGHT SERVICE,  STEERING CABLE 123D, BOTH NOSE LANDING WEAR WHEELS AND STEERING VALVE WERE REPLACED IAW MM 32-51-00, 32-40-02 AND 32-52-01, RESPECTIVELY, TEST WAS PERFORMED IAW MM 32-52-00, ALL CORRECT.
