Just a quick question, today at work i watched as a finnair 753 tookoff but seemed to leave the gear down for quite sometime (it was still down when I lost sight of it). I also witnessed the same thing happen on a BA 320, again the gear was still down when I lost sight of it
. Both a/c carried on and never returned to the field so i'm assuming it was'nt a technical problem. In both situations T/O appeared 'normal' and A/C had no problem climbing, both a/c were'nt going slow either. Someone out there has to know the answer.
