What is the vetical ground reaction on the main landing gear assemblies of a Boeing 747 aircraft when landing?http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_vetical_ground_reaction_on_the_main_landing_gear_assemblies_of_a_Boeing_747_aircraft_when_landing&src=ansTT
· Conventional landing gear uses wheels to bear the weight of the plane on the ground. Planes use unconventional landing gear when they're not going to be landing on flat ground. They use pontoons to land on water and skis to land on snow.
Basically, Helicopters Landing is of Two Types, One is Skid Landing, Wheel Landing. Skid Landing is used for Army, Civil, Ambulance etc.. This type of landing will be on Ground. Wheel Landing is for Navy, where landing will be on Ships.
You can never fully avoid but you can limit it risk of
The distance the aircraft travels on the ground before lifting off, or the same when landing.
To avoid accidents when the airplane is landing.
Hitting the ground is commonly referred to as falling or landing, depending on the context in which it occurs.
The A 380 approaches ground at 170 mph.
The person who guides planes to their landing is called a "ground controller" or "air traffic controller." They are responsible for ensuring the safe and efficient movement of aircraft on the ground and in the airspace around airports. Ground controllers use radar and communication systems to provide instructions to pilots during landing and takeoff procedures.
The momentum of the person is transferred to the ground upon landing. Initially, the person has momentum due to their motion in the air, and upon landing, this momentum is imparted to the ground as the person comes to a stop.
Rotation is when the aircraft pivots around the axis of its main landing gear while still on the ground. At rotation, the nose wheel lifts off the ground while the main landing gear wheels are still in contact with the ground.
The ground safety switch, often referred to as a weight-on-wheels (WOW) switch, is a critical component in an aircraft's landing gear system. Its primary function is to prevent certain systems, such as the landing gear retraction mechanism, from operating when the aircraft is on the ground. This ensures that the landing gear remains extended during ground operations, enhancing safety by preventing inadvertent gear retraction. Additionally, it helps in activating other systems only when the aircraft is airborne.
