## Discrepancy

PIT-DFW - FLT 692 - ON GEAR RETRACTION AFTER TAKEOFF, THE NOSE GEAR LIGHT REMAINED RED.  THE GEAR WAS RECYCLED WITH THE SAME RESULTS.  WHEN THE GEAR HANDLE WAS UP A LOUD WIND NOISE CONTINUED, BUT THE NOSE LANDING GEAR INDICATION PIN SHOWED THAT THE NOSE GEAR WAS RETRACTED.  THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO THE FIELD AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  (M)
