## Discrepancy

CLT - FL 2355 - ON GEAR EXTENSION, THE NOSE GEAR GREEN LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE.  CREW CYCLED THE GEAR WITH SAME RESULT.  CREW PERFORMED A GO-AROUND.  ON SECOND APPROACH, THE ALL INDICATIONS WERE NORMAL AND THE FLIGHT LANDED WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE NOSE GEAR OVERCENTER DOWNLOCK SWITCH.  (M)
