## Discrepancy

HYD PRESS CAS CAME ON ABOUT 1 HOUR INTO THE FLIGHT. I CONTINUED TO HIO AND LOWERED THE GEAR SUCCESSFULLY USING THE NORMAL MEANS. THE NOSE WHEEL TOOK AN EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME TO LOCK I BELIEVE. I LEFT THE HYD PRESS CIRCUIT BREAKER PULLED FOR LANDING PER THE CHECKLIST. I RESET THE CIRCUIT BREAKER AGAIN ON THE GROUND AND THE HYD PRESS CAS RETURNED. I CHECKED THE SIGHT GLASS AFTER THE FLIGHT AND THE FLUID APPEARED TO STILL BE RED. AIRCRAFT: EPIC, E100
