Woof, just another sad example of the butchery of the English language by the Yanks. It's simply inaccurate and incorrect: you'd think the lawyers would have jumped on this (though they are probably just as illiterate as Boeing's QRH writers).

There is a world of difference between "All landing gear" and "any ....", a well educated five year old can see that. Compare the statements; "you can have any of my sweets" and "you can have all of my sweets".

Pretty unimpressive for a manufacturer so legally blinkered that they do not admit to the existance of "emergencies" because of the liability implications of their not having anticipated an event, so they call them "Non-normal" checks!!!!!!!!

How ridiculous!
