## Narrative

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

ON APPROACH INTO KATL, THE FLIGHT CREW NOTICED THE LEADING-EDGE FLAPS TRANSIT LIGHT ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. A GO-AROUND WAS INITIATED APPROXIMATELY AT 800 FT. THE FLIGHT CREW RAN THE QRH AND DETERMINED THAT THE AIRCRAFT WOULD BE LANDED IN A FLAPS 15 CONFIGURATION. A PAN-PAN WAS DECLARED AND LATER UPGRADED TO A MAYDAY. THE AIRCRAFT LANDED SAFELY USING FLAPS 15 WITH NO REPORTED INJURIES

•	MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL IN ATL CARRIED OUT THE LEADING-EDGE FLAP AND SLAT PROXIMITY SENSOR TEST. THE TEST PASSED SUCCESSFULLY. INITIAL TROUBLESHOOTING DID NOT IDENTIFY ANY FAULTS, AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED BACK TO SERVICE.

•	ON THE RETURN SEGMENT TO CALGARY (YYC), THE FLIGHT CREW EXPERIENCED THE SAME EVENT. POST ARRIVAL, MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL TOWED THE AIRCRAFT TO THE HANGAR AND FOUND OUTBOARD SLAT PROXIMITY SENSOR WAS  FLUCTUATING INTERMITTENTLY. THE REPLACEMENT OF THE SENSOR WAS CARRIED OUT IN ACCORDANCE WITH AMM 27-88-11 AND TESTED SERVICEABLE. NO FURTHER DEFECTS FOUND.

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.
