## Discrepancy

DURING GEAR FREE-FALL DEMO THE MANUAL GEAR EXTENSION LEVER WOULD ONLY EXTEND 3 INCHES, NOT ENOUGH TO EXTEND GEAR.  MAINTENANCE FOUND CABLE 112A RUNNING ON OUTSIDE OF 3 CABLE SECTOR GUARDS, PLACED CABLE CORRECTLY UNDER SECTOR CABLE GUARDS.  INSPECTED CABLE NO DAMAGE NOTED.  ALL OPS CHECKS OF SYSTEM WERE GOOD.
