## Discrepancy

REFERENCE PILOT REPORT LOG PAGE 615630 ITEM 1, UPON TOUCHDOWN PILOT NEEDED RIGHT RUDDER TO STRAIGHTEN NOSE BUT RUDDER FELT LOCKED IN CENTERED POSITION. AFTER APPLYING MORE PRESSURE PEDAL UNLOCKED AND APPEARED TO WORK NORMALLY. REMOVED AND REPLACED ARTIFICIAL FEEL AND TRIM UNIT.  REFERENCE AMM 27-23-41 PAGE BLOCK 401. OPERATIONAL CHECK GOOD.
