## Discrepancy

(CAN) HYDRAULIC FLUID NOTED ON THE LEFT ACTUATOR DURING RETRACTION TEST.  TWO CORRODED POINTS FOUND AND THE METAL WAS DELAMINATED AT THESE POINTS.  THE HOLE WHICH DEVELOPED AND THAT ALLOWED THE FLUID TO LEAK COULD ONLY BE SEEN WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS, AT MAXIMUM PRESSURE AND WHEELS DOWN AND LOCKED.
