Rana Saab I wasn't expecting such a reply from an avaition professional like you..We are talking about a 777 would u please share with us the pre-flight and before start check list of the concerned aircraft.For your information Gear Pins are not installed in the cockpit of 777 unlike Foker,ATR,Airbus 310 and maybe a 747 and it does not have the Gear Pin item in any of the checklist.Whenever Gear Pins are installed they have to be mentioned in the technical log and u don't need to install gear pins during normal line operation.Lemme add there was no maintenance performed on the aircraft that required the installation of Gear Pin on that particular flight
