## Discrepancy

WHILE LANDING NOSE GEAR FAILED TO EXTEND PILOT LANDED AIRCRAFT WITH NOSE GEAR UP, BOTH MAINS DOWN AND LOCKED.  FOUND NOSE GEAR PUSH PULL TUBE JUST FWD OF THE GEAR BOX TO BE BROKEN BY THE BEARING ATTACH POINT AT THE IDLER BELLCRANK.  PROBABLE CAUSE: AGE, HOURS, CYCLES.  TO PREVENT THIS RECURRENCE, SUGGEST REPLACING THIS PART AT 15,000 HRS.  (K)
