## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING GEAR RETRACTION AFTER TAKEOFF, THE INBD DOOR JAMMED BETWEEN THE STRUT AND THE WHEEL ASSY CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE GEAR DOOR CLOSING MECHANISM.  THIS REQUIRED REPLACEMENT OF THE SUPPORT ASSY.  IT APPEARS THAT THE OVER CTR LOCK WAS NOT ENGAGED ALLOWING THE DOOR TO MOVE INWARD EARLY IN THE RETRACTION PROCESS. (TC 20100216011)
