The landing gear retracts at takeoff speed (120 kph) set in the script and lowers at speeds below 120kph. The speeds for tilting and landing gear retraction on takeoff may be altered in the string table above - speeds are in kph. Note landing speed above is a fraction of full speed, eg 0.4, not kph.
