Practicing take offs and landings
Half the time I can't get my gear back down even when I'm slow. Why do I keep losing my wheels? can I manually pump them down?

In most planes you have to be under ~150-170 ias. Hit G to lift gear, and to drop them for landing.

Also if you get to about 200 and your gear is still down after take off it will damage your gear.

Yeah it's all about the speed mate about 150 you have to be. When you hear a sound kinda like a car passing you i guess it sounds like, you know your going to fast and your gear will brake.

If you lower your gear too fast, it rips off. After that point, no amount of slowing will make it reattach itself.
