## Discrepancy

UPON LANDING, THE AIRCRAFT WENT TO THE RIGHT.  BEFORE THE CREW COULD CORRECT THE DIRECTION, THE AIRCRAFT HIT A LANDING LIGHT.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE EXTERIOR OF THE AIRCRAFT AND FOUND NO DAMAGE, MAINTENANCE THEN INSPECTED THE NOSE WHEEL STEERING AND ADJUSTED THE NOSE WHEEL STEERING TILLER 5 DEGREES IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 32-00-00.  OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE PERFORMED AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
