Greetings fellow CFI's,
I am having a hard time finding information regaridng the function and significance of the Gear In Transit light for the Piper Arrow (PA-28R-200). The POH for the Cherokee Arrow II published in 1971 does not specify the significance of the light illuminating other than to mention its existence on page 2-3. When I initially received training on the aircraft, my instructor told me that the light illuminates as a function of fluctuations in hydraulic pressure, so if the light illuminates when the gear selector is in a static condition, then it is an indication of a hydraulic leak or uncommanded shuttle valve activation. Any information regarding this indicator would be greatly appreciated, particularly reference material that I can use.
Many thanks,
Elias
