## Discrepancy

DURING LANDING GEAR EXTENSION, IT SOUNDED LIKE SIGNIFICANT DEBRIS CAME LOOSE IN THE NOSE WHEEL WELL.  WE DID LOW FLY BY, TOWER INDICATED EVERYTHING APPEARED NORMAL.  WE DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  FOUND NLG LANDING LIGHT ASSY BROKEN.  R & R NLG LANDING LIGHT ASSY IAW AMM 33-41-02.  OPS CHECK GOOD.
