The three largest are Safran Landing Systems, Collins Aerospace (part of Raytheon Technologies) and Héroux-Devtek. Given their varied designs and applications, there exists dozens of specialized landing gear manufacturers. įor launch vehicles and spacecraft landers, the landing gear usually only supports the vehicle on landing, and is not used for takeoff or surface movement. Seems like the thread discussed a few days ago of a user making minor updates to improve the general look of the cockpit in their perfectionist mod was seen as a declaration of war. These include: no landing gear (to save weight), made possible by operating from a catapult cradle and flexible landing deck: air cushion (to enable operation over a wide range of ground obstacles and water/snow/ice) tracked (to reduce runway loading). PMDG Officially enforces a copyright takedown on 737 cockpit enhancement mods from flightsim.to. Some unusual landing gear have been evaluated experimentally. Faster aircraft have retractable undercarriages, which fold away during flight to reduce drag. Wheeled landing gear is the most common, with skis or floats needed to operate from snow/ice/water and skids for vertical operation on land.
The retractable main landing gear of a Boeing 747įor aircraft, the landing gear supports the craft when it is not flying, allowing it to take off, land, and taxi without damage.
