I think my closing statement may have been slightly confusing, in that when
I said if the gear is released with the emergency extention the power pack
will push them into place. This gave the impression that the gear will not
free fall into the down and locked position - It will. However what was
missing from the statement is that if I prevent the gear from falling ie
hold the nose leg back (simulating too fast an airspeed) and then someone
resets the circuit breaker the pump will happilly power the leg into
position.

In other words I am not able to extend the gear using the pump because it
just sits and squeals but if this situation occurs and the gear is released
using the emergency extention the pump is then happy to continue push the
gear into its down position
