    More detail on nose gear preflight needed in POH

    Jim Andrews found why my nose gear failed to extend after a flight and the POH should probably be more specific on preflight inspection. The starboard nose gear door was binding enough to cause the actuator to blow its fuse. Just checking that the doors are down and locked is not enough. One needs to release the door latch and make sure the door moves freely enough to not overload the actuator.
