All A/C ok yeah, but during that inspection they found bells in the emergency gear release system not fixed, so in case of emergency release bell would have released instead of gear ! Appearently connected to factory modification on uplocks. Remember Jan 6th event in CPH, where a SAS Q400 couldnīt get one main gear down, neither with emergency release. Finally it come down after having reversed the normal and emergency down selection procedures.
