One of the British pilots said that the Gremlins were little imps who "got behind the
panel, disconnected the 'gear-up' warning, and then moved the undercart lever back to
up when you were nicely established on final. After the dust settled down, they
reconnected the warning, jumped up on top of the panel, stuck their tongues out at
you, and left you to explain the mess to your C.O."
