## Discrepancy

GEAR INTRANSIT LIGHT DID NOT EXTINGUISH AFTER TAKEOFF FROM JMS.  CYCLED GEAR AS PER QRH BUT TRANSIT LIGHT DID NOT GO OUT.  HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS INDICATIONS AND OPERATION WERE ALL NORMAL.  CONTINUED FLIGHT TO DVL DUE TO VERY HEAVY ICE IN JMS AREA.  GEAR OPERATED NORMALLY FOR LANDING.  POST INSPECTION FOUND ICE ACCUMULATION ON NOSE GEAR ROLLER AND PLATE REA.  REMOVED ICE ON UPLOCK ROLLER AND STRIKE PAD AREA.
