Default RE: Croaching Jumbo Jet !!

747,

Thanks for the firsthand info on the 747 gear and brake handle placements! On GA aircraft the squat switches are notoriously unreliable, and I know of at least 2 langing gear collapses in Bonanza's where the PIC moved the gear handle to UP instead of retracting the flaps after landing! Oops!!

Happy Flying!
