gkey is an unknown quantity at this point
Regarding when to select gear down, I think I found the answer. Quoted from the POH, page 4-21: " ...the gear should be extended BEFORE entering the traffic pattern. This practice will allow more time to CONFIRM that the landing gear is down and locked."

Two issues addressed here: (1) when gear should be lowered, and (2) why.

Jakes:2, CFI:0. The saga continues.
