A Jetblue Airbus A320-200, registration N506JB performing flight B6-811 from Boston,MA to Chicago O'Hare,IL (USA), was climbing out of Boston's runway 09 when the crew requested to maintain 4000 feet while working on a problem subsequently advising they had a gear indication, likely to be an indication problem however preventing them from flying at cruise speed. The crew decided to return to Boston for a safe landing on runway 04R about 20 minutes after departure.

The aircraft was able to depart again about 100 minutes after landing and reached Chicago with a delay of about 2:45 hours.

The FAA reported: "JetBlue Flight 811 returned safely to Boston Logan International Airport around 6:05 p.m. local time on Sunday, Oct. 13, after the crew reported a possible gear issue. The Airbus A320 was headed to Chicago O'Hare International Airport. The FAA will investigate."
