## Discrepancy

(CAN) AFTER LANDING, THE AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED A HYDRAULIC SYSTEM BY-PASS VALVE FAILURE. THE FLIGHT CREW ACCOMPLISHED THE APPROPRIATE SHUT DOWN CHECKLIST PROCEDURES WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. THE MAINTENANCE INSPECTION FOUND THE HYDRAULIC BY-PASS VALVE CASING HAD CRACKED. THE HYDRAULIC BY-PASS VALVE WAS REPLACED IAW THE MM AND AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE. ALL SUBSEQUENT OPERATIONS WERE NORMAL.
