## Discrepancy

DURING TAKEOFF, WITHIN 2 SECONDS OF SELECTING THE GEAR LEVER UP,  HEARD A LOUD "THUMP".  ALL THE GEAR GREEN LIGHTS EXTINGUISHED AND THE RED UNLOCK ANNUNCIATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED.  RAN EGINES INDEPENDENTLY APPLYING HYDRAULIC LOADS.  DID NOT OBSERVE A "LOW HYD FLOW" FROM EITHER ENGINE DRIVEN PUMP.   PERFORMED GEAR SWINGS AND WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM.  FOUND RT UPLOCK SWITCH AT FAULT .  R & R RT MLG UPLOCK SWITCH IAW MM 32-61-00.  OPS CHECKED GOOD.
