gear drag

chperplt

Thanks for the comment. Just so I am clear; the act of retracting the gear creates a higher drag than the fully deployed gear. Is that what you are saying? Clearly the fully retracted gear has much lower drag, are you saying they would already have hit the ground before this could be achieved?
