IS GEAR RETRACTABLE state

Post by mercury68 » 22 Aug 2020, 06:19

Hi, I'm new to here and to programming so I was wondering if that "IS GEAR RETRACTABLE equals OFF" does that mean it's a fixed landing gear aircraft?

I like to fly a lot of fixed gear GA aircraft and the landing gear lights on the switch panel are starting to annoy me so I want to switch them off if is't a fixed gear aircraft so my plan is to see if fixed gear or not and if yes turn off lights.

My plan for each LED is to set event at IS GEAR RETRACTABLE equals OFF and action to Change gear LED to off. Would that work if they are placed below the other events?
