I'm not an expert (y'know, like everyone in any given HN comments section), but surely there must be automated systems in place that warn the pilots if the landing gear is not deployed when within x meters of the ground?
- rwmj 6y agoYes there will be an automated warning. On the airbus it calls out "retard" below 20 ft. Edit: This wrong, see reply below.
- khuey 6y ago"Retard" is a normal callout during touchdown. The gear up warning is a separate "too low gear" callout from TCAS.
- aaronmdjones 6y ago"Too low, gear" (and the other terrain alarms) are from GPWS, not TCAS.
- khuey 6y agoThanks.
