A Westjet Boeing 737-8 MAX, registration C-GRAX performing flight WS-130 from Vancouver,BC to Calgary,AB (Canada) with 180 people on board, was on final approach to Calgary's runway 35R with gear extended and three greens when the crew received an EGPWS warning "Too low Gear, Pull Up!" at about 300 feet AGL and performed a go around. The crew consulted with company maintenance, cycled the ground proximity warning inhibit switch and conducted a second approach, again all gear was down and indicating green, there was no ground proximity warning. The aircraft continued for a safe landing.

The Canadian TSB reported on Oct 27th 2026, that company maintenance determined the landing gear lever module was faulty. The module was replaced.

The aircraft returned to service about 15 hours after landing.
