## Discrepancy

THE LEFT MAIN RED GEAR LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AFTER GEAR RETRACTION LEAVING BGR.  THE INDICATION HAD A BRIEF PROBLEM HISTORY.  THE FLIGHT WAS CONTINUED TO EWR WHERE IT LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE PROXIMITY CONTROL UNIT AND OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD.
