## Discrepancy

DURING FLAP RETRACTION AT 2 DEGREE ON CLIMBOUT, THE NR 4 RIGHT INBD FLAP DID NOT RETRACT.  THE POSITION TEST SELECTOR INDICATED THE SAME.  THE LEADING EDGE FLAPS POSITION IND LIGHTS WERE AMBER.  PROCEEDED WITH RED TAB CHECK LIST AND MADE A NORMAL LANDING.  REMOVED AND REPLACED NR 4 INBOARD LEADING EDGE FLAP POSITION INDICATOR PER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 27-82-1, OPS CHECK GOOD.
