## Discrepancy

CLE - FLT 0287 - THE LANDING GEAR WOULD NOT RETRACT AFTER TAKEOFF FROM CLE.  THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO CLE WHERE IT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE RE-RIGGED THE GROUND SENSING CONTROL MECHANISM AND ANTI-RETRACTION CABLE.  THE GEAR WAS SWUNG AND OPERATION CHECKED NORMAL.  IN ADDITION, THE NLG STRUT WAS SERVICED.  A DIP WAS ISSUED TO CHECK THE NLG X-DIMENSION AFTER 4, BUT NO MORE THAN 20 LANDINGS.  (X)
