The number of wheels an airplane has depends on the type of airplane. Some have none and take off and land on water, or on snow or ice. Many smaller airplanes have 3, like the piston powered Cessna 172 Skyhawk. We often call these planes private aircraft. The tricycle landing gear with a single wheel on each leg is common in airplanes a bit larger, too. The larger airplanes have more, as you'd guess. The Boeing 747 has 18 wheels and there are 22 on the Airbus A380.

THREE : all (or nearly all) planes have two landing gear wheels and one wheel that is either a nose gear or a tail gear wheel, for a total of three - larger planes can have more than one wheel on each gear, really big one having an amazing cluster of wheels, but they still act as a single unit planes with a tail wheel (or sometimes a skid instead of a wheel) are called conventional gear or taildraggers - planes with a nose wheel are called tricycle gear
it depends...........a small airplane has three landing gears one primary and 2 secondary.............in a large airplane there are somewhere around 26-30 wheels ANSWER 2 3 wheels or gear, two are the landing gear and one either a nose gear or a tail gear - each gear can have mutliple wheels/tires but they act as a single unit and so are just one wheel

it depends on the type. a floatplane can have none, but an A380 has 14.

They rotate and can be braked, just like auto wheels. Nose wheels can be steered.

An Airplane. Me. My sister when she is mad.
to gain speed for take off
"wheels up" is when an airplane is off the ground. When someone says they are going "wheels up" it means they are flying soon.
No, an airplane does not have legs but the wheels and everything that holds up the rest of the plane is called the gear or landing gear.
It is the main body of an airplane and does not include the wings and wheels etc.
