Oh, I got it! This baby's got a retractable gear and that
obnoxious noise is telling me I opened the spoilers w/out
lowering the gear.


That sounds like my first flight in my new (to me) DG-101. I entered the
pattern doing my checklist, gear down, check spoilers, hey, what is that
loud beeping? Turned out that the glider had a gear warning system that I
wasn't aware of, and that I probably had the gear down for the entire
flight, pulling it up for landing. I look at the wheel position symbols
next to the gear handle, now...
