 Why is 
there this attitude that says it's ok to see it coming, 
yawn 
about it, and do basically *nothing* to prevent it? 
 I mean, 
you can stress checklists and piloting skill as much 
as you 
want, but we've built up a track record which says 
those things 
DON'T WORK to prevent these accidents, while building 
up a 
simultaneous record which says undercarriage warnings 
DO work. 
So why resist the fitment of undercarriage warnings? 
 
So, your argument is that all pilots will land with 
the wheel up if they do not have an alarm fitted?
