Question...

When the gear collapsed, what was the position of the gear lever after the
collapse?  In the down or up position?

I was saddened to hear of that event - especially on take-off.......... 
and, of course because I contemplate the same possibility.
Is there a spot in the gear-down structure where the insertion of a
bar/lever/whatever mightr inhibit an over-centre travel on a bumpy take-off
(one which I may see fairly often up north)?  It might also stop inadvertent
gear-up on display stands.
