landing gear interface. by Steve Franklin
Hi there.. I have no idea about aviation so excuse me if this is a dumb question. Why is that on planes the landing gear: a) has such an unique interface relative to the other avionics. E.g Why the long handle? b) What is the purpose of the wheel at the end of the landing gear arm?

Airport Cafe by Jay Honeck
At other times, in other restaurants, he would be the guy to be studiously avoided, like a stray dog that looked friendly. In a freeway restaurant, or a hotel lobby, he would be the old guy that would cause you to avert your eyes and quicken your step, for fear of endless, repetitive...

JetBlue and DIRECTV by Bucky
Do you think they have DIRECTV on flight 292? It was pretty ironic to be watching your own plane on CNN.
