Not sure exaclty what you are asking. There are many minor systems that relate to the Landing Gear and the wheels and brakes. The aircraft is divided into different categories referred to as ATA categories. ATA 29 is Hydraulic Controls and ATA 28 is Fuel Controls. Landing Gear is covered by ATA 32. Then this category is sub-divided based upon the manufacturer's organization. ATA 32-10 is the Main Gears ATA 32-20 is the Nose Gears ATA 32-30 is gear retraction and extension ATA 32-40 is wheel and brakes and anti-skid ATA 32-50 is steering ATA 32-60 is Proximity Indicatio System Each of these sub-categories that relate to the braking, and steering and retraction are considered sub-systems of the landing gear.

Why is landing gear called landing gear?
Attached to a gear are many tires. The tires are used the land the aeroplane. That is why it is called landing gear.
What are the applications of an aircraft landing gear system?
Uhh...keeping airplanes from lying on the ground when they're not flying?
1950's war movie where the landing gear does not deploy and the young officer in the bubble under the plane draws the landing gear on a scretch pad and the landing gear appears like a characature.?

What is the definition of fixed landing gear?

Why is Vlo lower than Vle?
Vlo = Maximum landing gear operating speed (do not exceed this speed while the landing gear is operaing) Vle = Maximum landing gear extended speed (do not exceed this speed while the landing gear is extended) When the landing gear is fully retracted or fully extended it is locked into position and is more resistant to damage from high airspeeds. When the landing gear is in the process of extending or retracting (operating) there is no locking mechanism, and the only thing resisting the airflow is the extension/retraction mechanisms. Additionally, on some aircraft, the landing gear may swing or swivel in odd directions in order to tuck into their recesses, this can cause odd aerodynamic behavoir in the rest of the aircraft if done at high speeds. Once the landing gear is extended, it is rare that a pilot would then exceed Vlo. Most of the time the landing gear is lowered shortly before landing and the pilot is doing everything he can to slow the aircraft further. However in the event that an aircraft had to be flown a long distance with the landing gear extended (such as a ferry flight to a repair facility) the pilot would go ahead & fly Vle.

How far from an airport should aircraft wheels be down?
The wheels along with the system is called Landing Gear. The Landing Gear can be retracted soon after take-off. Stationary landing gears slow the aircraft down.
Where is landing gear actuator located in aircraft?
On the Landing gear
What is the landing gear on a helicopter called?
It is just called 'landing gear'
What has the author Irving Ross written?
Irving Ross has written: 'Flightworthy active control landing gear system for a supersonic aircraft' -- subject(s): Supersonic planes, Landing gear, Landing aids (Aeronautics), Airplanes 'An electronic control for an electrohydraulic active control landing gear for the F-4 aircraft' -- subject(s): Landing aids (Aeronautics), Airplanes, Electronic equipment
Types of landing gear?
1-tricycle gear 2-conventional gear 3-unconventional gear 4-tail wheel landing gear
How many landing gear must deploy to land?
All of the landing gear on the particular aircraft.
What is torsion links on landing gear system?
Torsion links are alloy frames which couple the inner and outer cylinders of a landing gear strut together. They prevent the torsional or 'twisting' motion of the strut on landing and also alow controlled compression of the gear piston once the full body weight of the aircraft has been applied.
Explain aircraft landing gear systems?
It is the system of wheels that opens before an airplane lands and closes after take off. The system also supports the aircraft while on the ground, taxiing or landing.
How big are the wheels on a Boeing 767?
A Boeing 767 aircraft has a total of 10 wheels. Two on the front landing gear, 4 on each of the two main landing gear.

What is belly landing?
A belly landing is a landing of an aircraft without the landing gear being deployed.
