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
Airplanes have wheels to help with takeoff and landing. The wheels provide support and stability during ground operations, such as taxiing on runways and moving on the ground. Additionally, wheels allow airplanes to be easily maneuvered on the ground and parked at the airport.
Yes, airplanes rely on friction during takeoff and landing. Friction between the aircraft's wheels and the runway helps it accelerate for takeoff and decelerate upon landing. Additionally, control surfaces like ailerons and flaps also use friction to adjust the aircraft's direction and speed in flight.
Airplanes experience friction during takeoff and landing as their wheels touch the runway. Friction helps the airplane slow down or come to a stop. Additionally, air resistance (drag) acts as another form of friction, slowing the airplane's forward motion in flight.
In a right turn, the rear wheels will track inside the path of the front wheels.
The best types of wheels to use for a soap box derby car are typically lightweight, durable, and have low friction. Many competitors use wheels made of hard plastic or rubber, with smooth surfaces for minimal resistance. It's also important to consider the size and shape of the wheels to ensure they fit the car's design and provide optimal performance.
There are no paved runways in Antarctica. Airplanes land on skis, not wheels, on runways of ice.
Yes. They are used in wheels and...stuff....
Yes they do because when your on the runway and the first wheels go out then the pilot pulls a lever that pulls out the second pair of wheels.
Hydro airplanes are airplanes that can land on water. They have floaties in place of wheels. They are almost always propeller powered as jets could cause too much wake.

They put one of the wheels in drive, and the other stays put so it turns.
there are 1,ooo,oo1 airplanes
Part of the reason is because the designer is not looking for an "appealing" look with an airplane tire. You won't see designer wheels either. The primary reason is that an airplanes wheels are just big enough to get the job done. You have to consider size when you retract them into the airplanes body and also size and weight are primary considerations on anything when building an airplane.
How big is the hangar, how small are the airplanes.
Well heres a list: Cars, bicycles, trains, airplanes, trucks, some chairs, etc.
Kites, Frisbees, pin wheels, bubbles, paper airplanes, boomerangs, and stretchy flying chickens
Four airplanes were hijacked on 9/11.
