Default lancair crash scapoose, OR


Yesterday, according to the news, a pilot and his grandson walked away from
a crashed Lancair after it had an electrical failure on takeoff and made a
gear-up crash landing.

Question: Do Lancairs not have a hydraulic dump or something to lower the
gear in the event of such a failure?
