## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHILE PERFORMING A SCHEDULED TASK TO REMOVE THE MAIN LANDING GEAR ACTUATOR FOR A SERVICE BULLETIN INSPECTION, WE NOTED THAT 2 OF THE 3 ATTACHMENT BOLTS WERE SHEARED ON THE RH ASSEMBLY AND 1 ON THE LEFT. NO OTHER DAMAGE WAS DETECTED AND THE THREAD PORTIONS OF THE SHEARED BOLTS WERE REMOVED WITHOUT FURTHER DAMAGE.
