Research direction

Start by reading TabularLowSpeedAero in subsystems/aerodynamics/gasp_based/table_based.py and trace how landing gear and flap durations are assigned. Determine the intended behavior for retract_gear and retract_flaps, then update the relevant implementation and tests so both cases have an explicit, verified outcome.
