Boeing Landing Gear Lever: UP & OFF
Hi there,

A question regarding the "Landing Gear" lever on Boeing aircraft.

What is the difference between the "UP" and "OFF" positions?

As well as this, do you not have to pass the lever through the "OFF" position to get to the "UP" position? Why can you not just move the lever from "DOWN" to "OFF" upon reaching positive climb?

Thanks for any insight offered!
