  As best as I can tell The facts:  The high pressure switch was fused or
shorted in the on position after the accident. It must have happened as I was
landing, The gear was coming up. The inboard gear doors were still open and
torn off. The gear was undamaged.  I was watching the asphalt coming up in
these last few seconds and not my lights. There were definitely 3 green on
base and all the noise and drag that accompany 3 down. How the switch happened
to close (and remain closed) at the time of landing, I don't know. I had no
opportunity to do the emergency gear extension. I have since redone all of the
relays and added the diode protection as indicated in the SB.
