	Tricycle gear - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tricycle gear describes a kind of aircraft undercarriage, or landing gear, arranged in a tricycle fashion.
		Tricycle gear is essentially the reverse of taildragger or conventional gear.
		Tricycle gear aircraft are easier to land because the attitude required to land on the main gear is the same as that required in the flare, and they are less vulnerable to crosswinds.

	Conventional landing gear - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Conventional landing gear describes an aircraft landing gear configuration with an undercarriage arrangement consisting of two main wheels and a tail wheel.
		The terms taildragger and tailwheel are aviation jargon for conventional gear.
		The tailwheel landing gear configuration has benefits when landing in high winds and rough, unimproved runways in that in such applications the sometimes fragile front landing gear could be easily damaged as it is often relied upon to counter any transverse loading, or side loads.

	Dictionary : Landing_gear
		Conventional fixed landing gear consists of two wheels forward of the aircraft's center of gravity and a small tail wheel located in the rear.
		Early gear used flexible material for landing gear struts (the structure that connected the airframe and the wheels).
		There are several types of landing gear: Conventional landing gear consists of two wheels forward of the aircraft's center of gravity and a third, smaller wheel at the tail.

	Conventional Gear: Flying a Taildragger - CON-GEAR (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		After the war, the tricycle landing gear layout became standard, but the traditional arrangement has always been known as conventional gear.
		However, conventional gear does introduce more demands on the pilot, especially during takeoff and landing, and in strong winds.
		A taildragger is more difficult to operate on the ground because the center of gravity is behind the main wheels; it therefore tends to deviate from a straight path during taxi, takeoff and landing.

	ASA Conventional Gear: Flying a Taildragger - Spinners Discount Pilot Supplies Shop
		“Conventional gear” was the traditional configuration of an airplane’s landing gear.
		This new book explains in detail how to fly an airplane that has this “tailwheel” type of landing gear, known as “taildraggers.” Many vintage airplanes, aerobatic planes, cropdusters, and ultralights are taildraggers, which means there are a large number of pilots who need to learn these particular skills and techniques.
		Written in plain language with many clear illustrations to explain the dynamics and techniques, Conventional Gear provides a thorough foundation of knowledge for the pilot seeking a tailwheel endorsement.

	The Mechanics of Conventional Cargo Gear (Non-mandatory). - 1918 App III
		Although the most prevalent method of cargo handling is accomplished through the use of modern shoreside container gantry cranes, there are occasions when break-bulk cargo is handled with conventional ship's cargo gear.
		It is important to understand that under the Burton System of cargo handling (conventional gear consisting of two cargo derricks with married falls), the midships or up-and-down boom should be spotted as close to the fore and aft centerline of the hatch as operationally possible.
		Such spotting of the up-and-down boom will allow the most effective leads for the guy(s) and preventer(s) to safely supportthe lateral stresses generated in the boom(s) by the married falls.

	Red Line ShockProof Gear Oil - Technical Information
		TM Gear Oil provides unequalled protection for high-performance differentials and transmissions which are heavily loaded or which see shock-loading.
		Gear teeth need high viscosity at high temperatures to prevent metal-to-metal contact and a low viscosity when cold to reduce fluid friction.
		Gear Oil has a 40% lower coefficient of friction and 250% the load-carrying capacity compared to conventional gear oils, which means that metal- to-metal friction is greatly reduced.
