## Discrepancy

(CAN) HYDRAULIC LEAK DETECTED DURING GROUND HANDLING.  INVESTIGATION REVEALED THE RT STANDBY BRAKE MANIFOLD PRESSURE TRANSMITER HAD FAILED.  THE LOWER PORTION WHICH IS THREADED INTO THE MANIFOLD APPEARED TO HAVE FAILED UNDER PRESSURE LEADING TO A LOSS OF THREEE GALLONS OF FLUID.  FAILURE MAY HAVE BEEN DUE TO CROSS THREADING.
