## Discrepancy

THE DOWN AND LOCKED INDICATION, 3 GREEN LIGHTS, DID NOT ILLUMINATE AFTER ATTEMPTING TO EXTEND THE LANDING GEAR.  AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE GEAR WAS FULLY EXTENDED AND THE 3 GREEN LIGHTS ILLUMINATED.  IT WAS LATTER DISCOVERED THAT THE HYDRAULIC POWER PACK FAILED TO FULLY EXTEND AND LOCK THE LANDING GEAR, WHILE ON FINAL APPROACH.
