Over the years I have personally been associated with several clubs and schools that rented retractable gear aircraft ( 2 singles and 1 twin). Everyone of these aircraft was eventually landed gear up by renter pilots who forgot the gear.

The result was that insurance became prohibitively expensive and now no one rents retracts.
