That's annoying in that very few things ruin a flying session more than unreliable landing gear, both in time spent fooling with them and the resulting scrapes and dings when they won't come down.

Unfortunately landing gear components/cylinders seem to be a weak link in many current generation jet products. I had to have all my clyinders replaced and the gear upgraded stateside to have a reliable system with a recent project.

I hate to pay "big bucks" for landing gear but in the long run, I would rather pay more and get a reliable system.
