## Discrepancy

DURING DESCENT, NOTICED LT HYD PRESS READ 6 AT LAS QTY.  AT LAS IT READ 12, PERFORMED QRH, HYD LEAK SUSPECTED.  AFTER LANDING FLUID PRESS & QTY BOTH WENT TO ZERO.

REPLACED FLEX LINE WITH RIGID LINE FROM LT T/R CONTROL VLV TO FILTER & OPERATIONS CHECKED & LEAK CHECKED IAW MM 78-30-00.  OPERATIONS & LEAK CHECKED GOOD. THIS CLEARS NEF 29-01 SIT 1 CTRL 15034 NEF CONTROL LOG UPDATED.
