Gear Down

When the glide slope diamond moves towards the center of the scale the autopilot will capture it
because we armed the approach earlier. Now is a good time to select the gear down and help us
decrease the speed further and get it to the -F, flap retraction speed in case of go-around.

Click the gear lever

or

Use the mouse wheel over the gear lever

or

Point at the gear lever and hold down the left mouse button and then move the mouse down to
drag the lever

or

Press any of your assigned control inputs for the gear (default key “g”)

Flaps 3, Flaps Full

When the airspeed dropped to the -F speed you can select the flaps from 2 to full.
