Lear 35. Approach speeds and gear

[Dean33 69]

This is really a great purchase. Two updates already and you know this is going to be a classic. GTN 750 certainly helps with 'getting going'

 

Can we clarify approach speeds, flaps and gear down speeds?

 

I've had a couple of times when the landing gear wouldn't come down. Has anyone experienced this?
