LGCIU 1+2 Failure on A320 Question
B767300,
With respect to your comment about the Reversers working in the simulator, I've had LGCIU 1 fail in flight in an A320. The status page stated that reverser one was inop, yet it actually worked when we landed.

I had this failure a couple months back when we selected the gear down at about 1800ft RA.
Now the ECAM was showing LGCIU 1+2 fault but it seems that not all parts of the LGCIUs were inop as the nr2 was showing the gear down on the wheel SD page, and the landing gear pos indicator was showing gear down too (Connected to the LGCIU 1 backup part).
After touchdown, both reversers worked just fine (status was showing reversers inop) and the landing gear doors retracted.
