Landing Gear Failure To Extend


Recommended Posts

I did some checking and found my problem was the down relay (getting power, just not relaying) so I changed both up and down relays (since I was in there). Work great now. I was talking to an older Mooney pilot and he told me thats a common problem. He said when his use to do it, he would kick the floor and they would go down. Come to find out the relays are bolted to the floor just aft the pilot seat underneath. Makes sense why kicking would work.

Get thee to an MSC and fix that gear!! Soon, before it won't go down at all . . . .


Electric-gear Mooneys do not have "manual" gear extension, we have "Emergency Gear Extension"! Manual gear extension involves a long steel bar coming out of the floor between the seats.
