Take a look at my set up, I have had a couple of hard landing and taxied accross some rough area and no collapse Lee Van Dyke ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marc Lee Winnig" <mlwin...@hotmail.com> To: "KR" <kr...@mylist.net> Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2006 11:18 PM Subject: KR> Retractable Gear? My recently acquired and "nearly done" KR2 has retractable gear, which I must assume is "old style". It does, however, have a safety latch to keep it from accidently collapsing due to rough taxiing or just an accidental release, as it take two levers to retract the gear. Anyone know more about this setup? Is it still subject to the same issues? "Hard landings" are, of course a relative term. The example cited seems pretty extreme (a panicked pilot fighting the co-pilot for control). I'd be more interested in more "normal operations" info.. Thanks!
