## Discrepancy

CREW REPORTED, DURING MISSED APPROACH, WHEN GEAR WAS SELECTED TO RETRACT, GEAR REMAINED DOWN.  DUE TO EXTRA DRAG FROM GEAR AND CURRENT FUEL LOAD CREW DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND LANDED SAFELY AT DESTINATION.  MX CLEANED LANDING POSITION SWITCH AND PERFORMED LANDING GEAR FUNCTIONAL TEST,  COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED.
