## Discrepancy

RIGHT GEAR DOWN LIGHT WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE ON LANDING.  I LOOKED AT THE LANDING GEAR WHEN THE PLANE WAS TOWED IN TO MY SHOP.  I FOUND THE LANDING GEAR MICRO SWITCH ACTUATOR TAB BROKEN.  WE JACKED THE AIRPLANE AND REPLACED THE SWITCH TAB AND ADJUSTED.  WE OPERATED THE GEAR NORMALLY AND DID EMERGENCY EXTEND WITH NO DEFECT.  WE RETURNED THE AIRCRAFT TO SERVICE
