## Discrepancy

TYS - A/C LEFT BNA WHEN THE GEAR WOULDN'T RETRACT, CREW MADE A UNSCHEDULED LANDING BACK TO BNA AND SWAPPED A/C.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE RIGHT SIDE PROX SWITCH LOOSE.  RE-SECURED THE PROX SWITCH AND SWUNG THE GEAR SIX TIMES, LET SET FOR THIRTY MINUTES AND RE-SWUNG THE GEAR.  ALL CHECKS WERE GOOD AND WAS RELEASED BACK TO SERVICE.
