In retrospect, I've been analyzing the landing gear system. I think the fact
that we didn't get the gear warning horn and the red gear warning light was
actually an indication that the gear was down. According to the manual
(which I'd like to confirm with the maintenance guys), "If the gear is
neither in the full up or full down position, a red WARN GEAR UNSAFE
annunciator at the top of the panel illuminates". If we didn't have the red
light, then the gear was down.


Isn't there a difference between 'full down' and locked? I guess I don't
understand the significance of the lack of the red warning light other than
indicating that you _might_ just have a faulty switch.
