Narrative:
Landing at dca we had to blow the landing gear down utilizing the emergency air system in an small transport. After disembarking our passenger, maintenance and the director of operations for FBO directed us to fly the aircraft, gear down, from dca-WO0 for corrective maintenance action. This we did. There was no damage to the aircraft either at dca or at WO9. The landing gear problem was corrected by maintenance and the aircraft was flown 2 days later.
