Undercarriage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The undercarriage or landing gear is the structure (usually wheels) that supports an aircraft when it is taxying or stationary. Wheeled undercarriages come in two types: either taildragger, where there are two main wheels towards the front of the aircraft and a single, much smaller, wheel or skid at the rear; or tricycle undercarriage where there are two main wheels (or wheel assemblies) under the wings and a third smaller wheel in the nose. Tricycle undercarriage aircraft are usually steered by the leading wheel(s) when taxiing. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Undercarriage   (679 words)

dog undercarriage - WordReference Forums The family I knew who used this expression used it as a polite way of talking about the rude bits of their dog. Actually, the context is a veterinary visit: a vet is feeling around a dog's undercarriage for possible illnesses and says he doesn't like the feel of the dog's abdomen. The point of "undercarriage" is that one thinks of it as being "carried under" the plane (when it is flying), and from there to the dog is an easy step. forum.wordreference.com /showthread.php?t=6435   (240 words)

Blue Heron Undercarriage Truss System The triangulated structure of the Blue Heron Undercarriage Truss System provides the needed support for the critical load point of the rails.

Secondly, due to the rigidity of the rial support system, adverse landing and taxi forces are transmitted to the rear axle of the aircraft where the spring rods and shock absorbers properly handle these forces. www.blueheronppc.com /truss.htm   (447 words)

Hurri and Spit undercarriage - Topic As for 'fragile' spitfire undercarriage, it might have been more fragile but I think the main reason for it being regarded as such was the fact that the undercarriage was less stable. The spit's undercarriage retracts outwards - ditto Bf109 - making it less stable than a Hurricane or an FW190. It was a noted feature of the He-111 that the undercarriage would deploy when the hydraulic system was damaged. forums.ubi.com /6/ubb.x?a=tpc&s=400102&f=63110913&m=310107644   (699 words)
