## Discrepancy

DURING POST FLIGHT INSPECTION IN OMA, THE FLIGHT ENGINEER FOUND THAT THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR RETRACT PIN SHEARED.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS FERRIED FOR REPAIRS IN ACCORDANCE WITH COMPANY PROCEDURES.  MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE RETRACT PIN IN ACCORDANCE WITH MAINTENANCE MANUAL AND SERVICE BULLETIN.  MAINTENANCE PERFORMED A SUCCESSFUL OPERATIONAL CHECK.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
