I jumped in and took off from runway 4, flipped up the gear handle and...
nothing. No transit light, just three greens still glowing brightly.
Toggle
the handle, nothing. So I call crosswind and then downwind while I toggle
a
few more times. Since Andrews-Murphy (KRHP) is in nearly the opposite
direction, Randall came on the radio and asked if I was coming back in.
Just
then the gear came up. I quickly explained and peeled off from midfield
back
to the north.
Congratulations, Jeff! Now go fly into some clouds.
But I was wondering: what was your state of mind as you hit the switch to
put the gear down at KRHP? We now know it worked...but you knew something
was wrong...
