Does anyone remember XN630 at Biggin Hill in July (I think) 1969?

Seem to remember a rumour that the u/c up button was pressed before the take-off roll was commenced, and u/c 'up' would occur when the weight came off the u/c.

In this case all went to plan except the JP decided that it was not yet ready to fly and sat back down on the ground!
