had a similar one myself several years ago where it was either a sharp pull or watch the gear arrive through the airframe (flat approach to rig due cloud base, lost all lift as I got over the deck). The limits in the engineering manual are different to the flight manual. I think up to 230% all that is required is a look around to make sure the gearbox is still connected etc.. It was a while ago as I said but the engineers didn't seem too worried by the whole thing.

I stand by to be corrected by Nick
