I've got a buddy with a Sisu. His Radio antennae is on his gear door pointing down when the doors are closed, to the side when they are open. It works a little like a curb feeler. It's a last minute warning but it actually saved him once.

Our CFI discovered this the hard way in our brand new
DG1000. luckily landed on soft grass so no damage.

Incidentally the BGA in the UK does not reccomend an
undercarriage warning buzzer.

I know of two accidents causing injury, one serious,
caused by a malfunctioning u/c warning system..
I was taught to look at the u/c lever before going
for the airbrakes and after 3000 hours it hasn't failed.........
yet.





Don't worry, Mel. It will. You are waaaaay past due.
