NOSE GEAR CAME DOWN WHEN POSITIONING GEAR TO OFF AFTER TAKE OFF. RAN QRH. NOSE GEAR RETRACTED NORMALLY WHEN BROUGHT TO THE UP POSITION. DID NOT FALL AGAIN WHEN PUT TO OFF WHILE PUTTING GEAR DOWN. GEAR CAME DOWN NORMALLY ON LANDING. GROUNDED - YES. C/W FIM TASK 32-30 TASK 809 AND AMM 32-33-00, NOSE LANDING GEAR EXTENDS AND RETRACTS NORMALLY.
