A Jazz de Havilland Dash 8-300, registration C-GTAT performing flight QK-8734 from Montreal,QC to Iles de la Madeleine,QC (Canada), was on approach to Iles de la Madeleine when the crew selected the landing gear down and received three greens, however, the nose gear retracted again and began cycling. The crew initiated a go around, worked the checklists and performed an alternate gear extension, which convinced the undecided nose gear to finally remain extended. As a precaution the crew requested emergency services on stand by for the arrival and landed safely. The aircraft was towed off the runway.

The Canadian TSB reported maintenance is currently investigating.
