Which indicator shows the left gear is not locked when the gear handle is down?

• A. Nose gear light green
• B. Unlocked indicator red
• C. All lights off
• D. LH UNLOCKED annunciator red

Answer: (D)

When the gear handle is down, you need a clear signal that shows if the left main gear isn’t locked. The Beechjet provides a dedicated red LH UNLOCKED annunciator for exactly this. If it lights, it indicates the left gear is not locked, which is the specific condition pilots must know about. Other indicators don’t pinpoint left gear status: the nose gear light green only reflects the nose gear condition, and a generic “unlocked” indicator or all lights off wouldn’t clearly communicate left gear lock status. Therefore, the red LH UNLOCKED annunciator is the correct signal to watch.
