Thumbs up

In flight today, 76S (T337C with dual hydraulic pumps) retracted and extended the gear with 15 - 19 seconds total cycle time, from handle selection through handle kicking back into the neutral position. That's pretty hard to complain about! :-)

hharney is on a distinguished road
In flight today, single gear pump on the front engine. Level flight 2400 RPM IAS 135 MPH.

Up Cycle 18.3 seconds
Down Cycle 17.6 seconds

This is from the first movement of the handle to return / neutral

Well there you go, timed with iPhone 4
