## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING MAIN LANDING GEAR RETRACTION AND EXTENSION PILOTS NOTED A SLIGHT YAW. THEY ASSUMED IT TO BE CASUED BY DIFFERNECE IN RETRACTION RATES OF LANDING GEAR. UPON LANDING AT BASE, THE ENGINEER NOTED THAT THE GEAR DOOR WAS LOWER THAN THE RIGHT. INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THE LANDING GEAR DOOR LINK WAS REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE AND THE SYSTEM WAS FUNCTION CHECKED SERVICEABLE. AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.
