I hope Matt Reeves is wrong about the Legacy's gear looking like the
Glasair III gear. The guy in the hangar next to me when I lived in SoCal
had a G III and his gear collapsed while taxiing off a runway when his
Hydro system lost pressure. Seems the G III doesn't have any sort of
down-lock other than hydraulic pressure. No good ol' over-center lock
ups or nuttin'!! Can you say "very short three-bladed MT props are BAD"?
After listening close at the friend's hangar door that day, I can!!
