## Discrepancy

DURING COMPLIANCE WITH AD 2005-13-16 THE DOWN LOCK LINK ASSEMBLY WAS INSPECTED AND FOUND TO BE AIRWORTHY AT THAT TIME AND WAS REINSTALLED INTO THE AIRCRAFT (THIS PART IS NOT PART OF AD2005-13-16 INSPECTION).  AFTER 60 HRS OF OPERATION THE PART IN QUESTION FAILED, DUE TO UNKNOWN REASONS.
