## Discrepancy

NOSE LANDING GEAR DID NOT RETRACT DURING CLIMB-OUT.  FOLLOWED COCKPIT OPERATING MANUAL PROCEDURES.  RETURNED TO MSP AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE NOSE LANDING GEAR STRUT FLAT DUE TO CUT O-RING AT SCHRADER VALVE ASSEMBLY.  REPLACED CUT O-RING AND SCHRADER VALVE ASSEMBLY.  SERVICED NOSE LANDING GEAR STRUT.  LEAK CHECK OK.
