## Discrepancy

WHEN THE LANDING GEAR WAS SELECTED `UP` THE NOSE LANDING GEAR DOORS FAILED TO CLOSE.  THE GEAR WAS RECYCLED AND THE NLG DOORS INDICATED `CLOSED`.  THOROUGH TESTING AND INVESTIGATION IAW MAINTENANCE MANUAL FAILED TO FIND A CAUSE FOR THE DEFECT AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENTS.
