EMER GEAR handle
a.
Location: left forward console, both
cockpits
b.
Purpose: rotated clockwise and pulled,
it unlocks gear/doors (neutralizing all
hydraulic pressure in gear/door lines)
and activates emergency gear
extension
NOTE: CABLE mechanically unlocks
doors and neutralizes pressure in gear/
door hydraulic lines, allowing
aerodynamic forces and gravity to
extend and lock gear.
NOTE: Gear may be lowered but not
raised with the emergency gear
handle. Even though activating the
EMER GEAR handle will allow the
gear to free-fall, it may be necessary to
apply slight g loads and yaw on the
aircraft to lock the gear in position.
