## Discrepancy

THE CREW REPORTED THAT DURING FLIGHT THE LEFT MAIN LANDING GEAR DOORS (BOTH DOORS) WERE NOT CLOSING AFTER GEAR EXTENSION. THE AIRCRAFT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT AT ITS INTENDED DESTINATION. MAINTENANCE CLEANED AND LUBED THE LEFT HAND MAIN LANDING GEAR FORWARD ACTUATING RODS. OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD WITH NO FURTHER DEFECTS NOTED.
