Narrative:

This aircraft has a leak from the galley into the cockpit. It is located on the aft right bulkhead wall. It drips down onto the circuit breaker panel P6-4 and onto the carpet and probably under the cockpit floor. This is not the first aircraft I have seen like this. Please note that another aircraft was written up yesterday for the same thing. My concern is for flight safety as this leak is on or near the circuit breakers and possibly into the east&east compartment.
