## Discrepancy

LT MAIN GEAR DID NOT RETRACT ON TAKEOFF (CONFIRMED BY INDICATOR LIGHTS, TOWER AND WIND NOISE). AFTER ABOUT 2 MIN RETRACTED BY ITSELF, WITHOUT US CYCLING THE GEAR.  REMOVED LT MAIN GEAR UPLOCK SWITCH DUE TO HIGH RESISTANCE. INSTALLED NEW SWITCH AND ADJUSTED IAW MM 32-61-00, OPS CHECKED GOOD.
