Apparatuses and methods for cowl latch indication
A latch indication assembly includes a latch and an indicator assembly. The latch is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position, and is configured to secure a fan cowl of an aircraft. The indicator assembly is operably coupled to the latch, and includes an indicator movable between an open position and a closed position responsive to movement of the latch. The indicator extends from an exterior of the fan cowl when in the open position, and is visible from an exterior position proximate at least one of a side or an underside of the aircraft when in the open position. The indicator assembly extends to the open position when the latch is in the unlocked position, and is configured to be retractable to the closed position when the latch is in the locked position.
