Not to Monday morning QB or anything, but the way I read it, on approach they dropped the gear, got 4-green, then RAISED the gear to see if they'd come up? ****? Gotta question judgement there, possible problem on take-off results in normal indication on landing, and you're gonna push your luck? Would've sucked if they would have had unsafe indications at that point and had to explain the additional gear cycle before landing.

Ya'll forgot how the LCAs always have to throw that crap out...
"While conducting IOE, I had to exercise Captain's Authority and have student FO consult QRH for emergency defecation/loss of bowels procedure. Complied with QRH, Blah, Blah." 3 paragraphs later, "good job by IOE student assisting LCA with this critical problem."
