## Discrepancy

(CAN) DUE TO A BROKEN MLG LEG ON ONE OF OUR AIRCRAFT LAST SEASON IT WAS DECIDED TO HAVE ALL MLG LEGS MAGNAFLUXED TO DETERMINE IF ANY OTHERS IN THE FLEET WERE CRACKED.  EACH INSPECTION SINCE THEN, NDTD LEGS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED AND THE LEGS REMOVED FROM SERVICE HAVE BEEN TESTED. WHEN LEGS WERE TESTED THE LT LEG WAS FOUND TO HAVE A CRACK IMMEDIATELY OB THE MLG SUPPORT BRACKET IN THE SAME PLACE WHERE THE MLG LEG BROKE ON LAST SEASON.
