## Discrepancy

DURING APPROACH AFTER F/O CALLED FLAPS 15, NOTICED A SPLIT IN THE FLAP INDICATOR WITH RIGHT NEEDLE AT FLAP 1 AND LEFT NEEDLE AT FLAP 15. DISCONTINUED APPROACH. NO EICAS OR OTHER INDICATIONS OF A FLAP PROBLEM. F/O SAID THERE WAS NO LATERAL CONTROL ISSUES HE COULD FEEL. RAN THE FLAP INDICATION DISAGREE CHECKLIST. LANDED NORMALLY WITH FLAPS 30. REMOVED AND REPLACED FLAP POSITION INDICATOR.
