A hand crank for a landing gear is described, the hand crank having a main body provided at a first end with a connecting element for fastening the hand crank to an input shaft of the landing gear and formed at an opposite, second end to rotate the hand crank. The hand crank only allows torque to be transmitted from the hand crank to the input shaft if the operator holds the hand crank with at least one hand. A clutch is arranged in the force flow between the first end of the main body and the connecting element, wherein the clutch is held in an open disconnected position and is moved into a force-locked connection position by operating an actuating element arranged at the second end.
