## Discrepancy

(CAN) AFTER LANDING GEAR HAD RETRACTED, THE PILOTS NOTICED A DROP IN HYDRAULIC QUANTITY AND PRESSURE.  AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO BASE.  INSPECTION FOUND A CRACKED FITTING ON THE NR 2 HYDRAULIC PRESSURE MANIFOLD.  EDP WAS REPLACED AS IT WAS RUN DRY FOR MORE THAN 15 MINUTES SYD 8-29-002 REFERENCED.  THIS SYD ALLOWS THE REPLACEMENT OF THE AN815-10D FITTING FROM ALUMINIUM TO STAINLESS STEEL FITTING.
