THE ACFT WAS INTENTIONALLY LANDED WITH THE LANDING GEAR RETRACTED WHEN THE LT MAIN GEAR COULD NOT BE EXTENDED. INSPECTION OF THE ACFT REVEALED THAT THE SPRING WHICH PULLS THE LT MAIN GEAR UPLOCK OUT OF THE WAY WHEN RELEASED HAD BECOME DISCONNECTED FROM THE UPLOCK DUE TO CORROSION DAMAGE TO THE METAL AT THE ATTACH POINT.
