The accident rates of retracts vs. fixed-gears are well-documented.
You're saying you're a pilot who can handle it, fine. But the accident rates support the contention that average pilots are suffering from loss-of-control relatively often and that they fare worse in retracts. BTW, I have several hundred hours "in the goo" in many aircraft but mostly Bonanzas. I can handle it too, but I don't kid myself - my risks would be lower in a fixed-gear 182. - Mark
