## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING WALK AROUND,  AIRCRAFT HYDRAULIC FLUID WAS NOTICED COMING FROM THE LEFT HAND WHEEL WELL. FURTHER INVESTIGATION FOUND THE FLUID WAS LEAKING FROM A CRACK IN THE MAIN LANDING GEAR TRANSFER CYLINDER. THE TRANSFER CYLINDER ASSY WAS REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.
