## Discrepancy

ON APPROACH TO PHL, AS FLAP HANDLE WAS EXTENDED TO FLAPS 30, FLAP INDICATOR NEVER MOVED PAST FLAPS 5 INDICATED WITH GREEN LIGHT.  RECYCLED FLAPS, NORMAL INDICATIONS.  FLIGHT LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE OPERATED FLAPS TO 40 SEVERAL TIMES.  NO DEFECTS NOTED WITH FLAP INDICATOR.  NO CHAPTER 27 HISTORY IN 40 DAYS.  OK FOR SERVICE.
