carusoam Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) Welcome aboard Flugbert. I think I remember somebody getting the details of the manual gear extension for the Long Bodies. But, not enough to recall how to find it... Since this is done every year for many Mooneys, it isn't too hard to find it being done. Or get a video of your own having it done... Is their a particular bit of experience that you are looking for? Best regards, -a- Edited May 29, 2017 by carusoam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertGary1 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 That's what I was going to say. You should be doing it at annual. Makes life easier on your IA, less jumping in and out to measure after lowering. -Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddy Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 My suggestion would be to tell your IA at your next annual that you would like to do the emergency gear extension your self while the airplane is up on the jacks. Also make sure that you use the POH and go step by step as though you were making a real emergency gear extension. One word of caution after you go through the procedure of lowering the gear make sure the red lever is secured before you raise the gear electrically, if you don't it could cost you a gear box.
