Landing Gear Problem

Featured Replies

Sometimes I have a problem where the gear refuses to retract on PIC/POSKY merge aircraft. Visually, the gear handle goes up and down, but there is neither sound nor movement of the gear. The only way I have found to fix it is to briefly switch to another aircraft and back again, after which the gear responds normally.Anyone else had this problem? Any way to stop it happening in the first place?

LOL. Ah yeah you could say we know a little about that! The question that I want to ask you is "Do you use a LANDING PANEL for PIC"? This was one issue in making my latest VFR panel and thanks to a couple of great guys here it was fixed.[h5]Best Wishes,Randy J.

Randy,So you're the culprit hey Randy, LOL! I'm using your landing panel, dated Dec 07, 2002. I see in the AVSIM library that there is a newer version, pic_767_vfr_panel.zip, dated 23 Feb 03, which I'm downloading as I type. Hopefully this will fix the problem. Great panel BTW!RESET
