## Discrepancy

BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT SMOKE INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON DESCENT INTO KCHS. DECLARED EMERGENCY AND LANDED SAFELY. THERE WAS NO SIGN OF ANY ACTUAL SMOKE OR FIRE. INDICATION ISSUE ONLY. SMOKE DETECTORS TESTED AND FUNCTIONED PROPERLY ON THE GROUND. REPLACING BOTH AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE DUE TO AGE OF SMOKE DETECTORS.
