Well I finally done it. After checking that my gear handle was in the
proper position twice prior to landing, shortly after touchdown my gear collapsed! The only thing we could think is that the gear handle appeared to be in the detent when it really was not. Further looking at it one can actually miss the detent slightly, just before the actual notch and still have the handle touching the side of the cockpit everything looking just right. Somehow I guess one needs to lean over, look and make sure it is in actually engaged, somewhat of a pain. My question, is there any safety device available out there to prevent this problem? PeterK |
