The Chelton has a nice feature that gives you a
warning 500 feet above the runway. However, it is certainly possible to
become distracted and miss it.
The nice thing about the Legacy is that it is
pretty hard to slow down without the gear.

Subject: [LML] Gear Up
It seems like we have exhausted this gear up incident, except
that the object and purpose of the LML should be education and, as some have
pointed out, to learn from our mistakes. So I guess the question is what
did we learn? Hard to know without all of the facts Most of
us deal with it with checklists and technology, but these are not infallible,
and it seems like the gear up issue never goes away.
So I come back to
does anyone have ideas on how to keep this from happening? Does anyone
have a better mousetrap. Thoughts on how to set up gear warning systems
- both Chelton and MVP seem to do this well, how to never forget to use the
checklist even when distracted - this is a hard one for me.
