Default Checklist

Consider a slow taxi and not at rest. But I would guess the breaker would
pop first if you're not moving. Or maybe the gear motor burn up before the
gear would give at rest.

You have got to be kidding...?

Or else flying a fixed gear.

Theres no way the gear can retract while the plane's weight is on the
gear.

Even if the squat switch were to fail, the gear retraction motor is
not going to be powerful enough to bring the gear up from underneath
you.
