HE ALSO REPORTED, THE GEAR WARNING HORN STOPPED SOUNDING AND THE HYDRAULIC PRESSURE WAS NORMAL. THE GEAR WAS THEN RECYCLED AND THE SAME RESULTS OCCURRED. THE GEAR APPEARED DOWN AND LOCKED DURING A VISUAL INSPECTION. THE PLT REPORTED TOUCHDOWN WAS 'LIGHT' AND EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL UNTIL THE THROTTLES WERE REDUCED AT WHICH TIME THE ACFT SEEMED TO 'HOP'.
