## Discrepancy

(CAN) SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF THE CREW NOTICED BOTH RED HYDRAULIC ANNUNCIATORS ON SO RETURNED BACK TO THE AIRPORT. ON INITIAL CHECK THE FLIGHT CREW DISCOVERED HYDRAULIC FLUID DRIPPING FROM THE L/H NACELLE IN THE AREA OF THE HYDRAULIC POWER PACK. A MAINTENANCE CHECK FOUND THAT HYDRAULIC ACCUMULATOR HAD A CRACK IN THE DOME LARGE ENOUGH TO LOSE A LARGE AMOUNT OF FLUID AND DROP SYSTEM PRESSURE.
