## Discrepancy

AFTER TAKEOFF, THE CREW REPORTED NOT GETTING A GEAR UP AND LOCKED INDICATION AND DIVERTED TO DAY.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND FOUND 4 PIECES OF ICE IN THE WHEEL WELL AND REMOVED IT.  MAINTENANCE THEN PERFORMED OPERATIONAL CHECKS IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 32-00-00.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS THEN RELEASED FOR SERVICE.
