I was on final approach and elected to perform a go around.  Throttles were at full and gear retracted when the horn cut in and wouldn't quit till I put the year down again on final approach.

Hi,

in Addition, you can silence the horn by clicking the little round button on the right side if the throttle quadrant right beneath the flap selector stick.
You can silence the horn with flaps setting to 25 and gear up. Any flap setting above 25 degrees and gear up condition will result in a warning horn that can only be silenced by gear down. So if you fly a go around and raise the flaps, try the Warnung horn silence button as soon as the flaps are above 25 degrees.

Hi,

i know, that you were familar with the silence button, it was just in addition for our topic starter 
Yes, the flap and gear logic seems to be very close to the real 737 logic! I think, it is a very simple but useful trick, that Boeing allowed to silence the warning only with flap settings used for approach, but not for landing with a retracted gear. I think there have been enough examples of very very close to runway touch downs in history cause of pilots forgot the landing gear and irgnored reading the check list.

The only time I couldn't silence the horn was when I had the flaps at 25, or more, and the gear up.
