hmmm, I'm not sure that they left the code in BF2 for openable doors on vehicles, maybe, but you never know with DICE. If not, then it might be possible to do with python, the same applies to the B-Wing's S-Foils.
Well if they are stupid enough to have "Enemy Wheelbarrow Spotted" then they probably have that code. 
thats something SCH can answer... at present they open on take off when the landing gears rise
If you've ever played Rouge Squadron for Nintendo(s), you can flip the files open and closed. When they are open, you go slower, but you can fight then. When you have them closed, you are going faster and it's not really a good mode to fight in.

I think you should just be able to flip them on and off as long as your moving. Just when they are down, you can't shoot but maybe your more agile? and when they are up you lose some agility but you can fire?
