Hope this isn't taking us too far off topic - but I wasn't aware that ATC dealt with retractable aircraft any differently to fixed gear.
Only in the following ways:
1) SRA phraseology (unlikely in the Europa as it's not approved for IMC, but may be your only option if you end up in it
) requires an undercarriage check during the approach.
2) When you get a range check from radar (say traffic on an instrument approach) a mental clock starts ticking. You know that certain retractables at 7 miles will beat the aircraft just starting the downwind leg to final - for some fixed gear the reverse is true. It's how you decide who will be number 1 and who will be number 2.
