I suppose forgetting to retract the gear is better than forgetting to lower the gear. There are two kind of pilots. Those that have forgotten to lower the landing gear, and those that will. (Why amateur pilots should avoid retractable landing gear.)

I worked AControl at a military airport.
“Confirm, Gears Down” was radioed many times by us. We used the binoculars a lot.

Any amateur pilot that was taught to GUMP before landing will never leave the gear up. Gas, Undercarraige, Mixture, Prop.
