Gear unsafe/missed approach.
Scenario,
On approach the crew selected the gear down and get a gear unsafe warning. The crew elect to do a missed approach/go around and clean the aircraft up fully IAW company SOPs. They then climb and maneuver to a holding pattern to deal with the situation.
Upon reviewing the QRH, it spells out "NOT" to retract the gear for their situation, which they have already done so (?).
My question is, were the crew correct in retracting the gear during the missed approach given the situation ? Dealing with a QRH checklist is a very low priority whilst low to the ground, not to mention the complications involved if they had an engine failure during the missed approach with the gear partially extended, ie reduced climb performance.
In my view I believe that the gear unsafe warning in this situation has become a secondary problem when dealing with a missed approach.
