## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

(-23) ON APPROACH THE NLG DID NOT INDICATE DOWN AND LOCKED. AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING WAS MADE. MAINTENANCE REPLACED BOTH DOWNLOCK SWITCHES AND NLG DOWN AND LOCKED INDICATION WORKED AS IT SHOULD.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
