When are landing gear indications removed from EICAS?

10 seconds after gear is up and locked.
20 seconds after gear is up and locked.
30 seconds after gear is up and locked.
When the flaps are retracted.

The correct answer is: 30 seconds after gear is up and locked.

Landing gear indications are removed from the Engine Indication and Crew Alerting System (EICAS) 30 seconds after the landing gear is up and locked. This behavior is part of the aircraft's design to streamline the information presented to the pilots and reduce clutter in the EICAS displays. Once the landing gear is confirmed to be in the up and locked position, the system allows a brief period for pilots to verify the status and ensures that if any abnormalities occur during this time, the pilots are still aware of the gear’s position. After 30 seconds, if no further issues are detected, the indications are removed to focus on more critical information related to the flight. This approach helps in prioritizing necessary data while maintaining safety awareness during the gear retraction phase of flight.
