REFLECTOR: Main gear stops

[MMurp16900 at aol.com]

Hi Al
subject Gear stops
All three cylinders must be stopped by the spacer bushings at each of the  
three cylinders.
after both  gears  up and nose gear doors closed  all  bushing spacers make 
contact ,the
1200 psi. switch opens and the pump stops.
If this is not done you may break something.
I know of a Velocity on his first flight that drove the main gear up and  
lifted the top of the strake and lost all the fuel from the left fuel  tank.
1200 psi can do a lot of damage.
Regards
Mack
