Landing gear out in flight

Hello, does anyone know why the landing gear stays out on some aircraft in flight? in this image we are three friends flying together and one of them can see the train outside, that is not normal, just like he sees ours outside, it is a fault with the plane, the server, the connection, does anyone know?, thanks .

So just to be clear - the landing gear lever is UP for you and the gear shows as UP - but when you go to external view it shows as down?

Or is it only other players who see your gear as down?

The F-18 does this if you forget to retract the gear quickly after takeoff. It might be a bug, but it might be modelling that the gear breaks if you fly to fast with it down and will no longer retract. When this happens the retract lever has no effect.

I honestly haven’t noticed this yet, but as for the F18, yes it be stuck in the down position if you exceed approx 260kts.(damaged)
Ps, it’s not the gear itself that is damaged. It’s the gear doors, preventing retraction.

Yes, of course, the lever is up, what happens is that sometimes a plane has its gear down, sometimes only part of the flight, others almost the entire flight, these images are from right now, we are in flight at Greek islands, and look at one of the planes, you can see the wheels, and the gear is up.

What I am saying is not anything that it gets stuck, it is a failure of something, look now it looks good, when it seems to you it goes well.

From the screenshots, it looks like it’s happening when you’re looking at “multiplayer traffic” aircrafts. It’s not happening to your own aircraft right?

Going to be something with the other players: Plane version, Livery, Mod they’re using.

Obviously it’s only doing it to one of your buddies; inquire as to what he’s using and make sure he’s updated.

I’ve had that happen before flying with friends. Starting again with a new flight in the air not on the runway fixed it

No NEO, my plane looks good, we only see the plane of one of the friends

In our flights we still use the same liveries as different ones, the plane we normally use is the FlyByWire A320, although we also use the A330 or the 747, and in all of them something happens on the train, in the A330 and the 747 being at the airport planes are often seen floating in the air, that is, without wheels, on the A320 it is in flight when that happens, on one of the planes you see the gear outside

Yeah, it looks like there’s an issue with Air traffic “gear states” as you said. Sometimes you see other air traffic without the gear down and sometimes you see them with gear down on cruising. It’s either the data was not being sent with the state of the landing gear to you, or your sim side doesn’t receive the gear state data from those air traffic.

You should report the bug because I haven’t seen it so far.
Looks like a replication issue somehow between players.
