Gear coming down at FL400

I’ve been on a 2hr flight in the Longitude and 3 times my gear has dropped and my parking brake has activated?

This forces the aircraft to reduce speed to 200kts and if left unchecked will stall.

This also happens on the King Air and when Idle on the ground, if you open the weight and balanced tab, the engines will shut down?

I’ve never had these issues before especially with the longitude.

Has anyone experienced similar issues

I’ll try get a video the next time if happens!

I wasn’t at the screen at the time it happened. I left it cruising and came back to gear down and park brake on.

My apologies for the late reply.

The video link shows the Longitude on full autopilot, no control input and the gear and brakes activate. This causes the AP to drop to 200kts which is fine at lower altitudes.

It’s quite exciting at FL400 :sweat_smile:
