## Discrepancy

DURING APPROACH, THE CREW OBSERVED NO RT GEAR DOWN INDICATION.  THE CREW DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND EXECUTED A GO AROUND TO GET A VISUAL VERIFICATION THAT THE GEAR WAS DOWN.  UPON POSITIVE CONFIRMATION, FLIGHT 4145 LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND REPLACED THE LANDING GEAR CONTROL LEVER IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 32-31-01. OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE COMPLETED AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
