It can be fixed in place, as on a cargo truck, mounted on a swivel, as on a railway carriage / car or locomotive, or sprung as in the suspension of a caterpillar tracked vehicle, or as an assembly in the landing gear of an aircraft.

The power and aerodynamics of the Hornet allows them to perform a slow, high angle of attack " tail sitting " maneuver, and to fly a " dirty " ( landing gear down ) formation loop, the last of which is not duplicated by the Thunderbirds.

* Land-O-Matic – In 1956, Cessna introduced sprung-steel tricycle landing gear on the 172.

The marketing department chose “ Land-O-Matic ” to imply that these aircraft were much easier to land and take off than the preceding conventional landing gear equipped Cessna 170.

In later years some Cessna models had their steel sprung landing gear replaced with steel tube gear legs.

The 206 retains the original spring steel landing gear today.

* 1978 – With the crew investigating a problem with the landing gear, United Airlines Flight 173 runs out of fuel and crashes in Portland, Oregon, killing 10.

To ensure a minimum speed he specified that the landing gear remain down, in the takeoff / landing position, and the wing flaps be lowered 15 degrees.

The approach is novel in that it uses a mostly stock aircraft with a modified landing gear " pod " that carries the engine for road propulsion.

The wings fold along the side, and the main landing gear and engine pod slide aft in driving configuration to compensate for the rearward center of gravity with the wings folded, and provide additional stability for road travel.

The internal landing gear would have been too small to carry the weight of the fully fueled rocket, so emergency landings would have required the fuel to be dumped.

The aircraft produced by Maule Air are tube-and-fabric designs and are popular with bush pilots, thanks to their very low stall speed, their tundra tires and very forgiving oleo strut landing gear.

It was decided to use the Vulcan to initially carry two missiles each on hardpoints outboard of the main landing gear.

The accident caused a separation of the nose cone and landing gear, partial separation of the right wing, and a bend in the left wing.

After the plane penetrated through the tower, part of the plane's landing gear and fuselage came out the north side of the tower and crashed through the roof and two of the floors of 45 – 47 Park Place, between West Broadway and Church Street, ( 600 feet ( 180 meters )) north of the former World Trade Center.

Some debris from the aircraft were recovered nearby, including landing gear found on top of a building on the corner of West Broadway and Park Place, an engine found at Church & Murray Street, and a section of the fuselage landed on top of 5 World Trade Center.

Thirty stations, operated by 16 national governments party to the Antarctic Treaty, have landing facilities for either helicopters and / or fixed-wing aircraft ; commercial enterprises operate two additional air facilities.

The landing delay caused by the malfunction in the Command / Service Module's main engine necessitated significant modifications to the mission schedule.

According to FBI director Robert Mueller and the 9 / 11 Commission, Omari entered the United States through a Dubai flight on June 29, 2001, with Salem al-Hazmi, landing in New York.

; Vault: In the vaulting events gymnasts sprint down a runway, jump onto or perform a roundoff entry onto a springboard ( run / take-off segment ), land momentarily, inverted on the hands on the vaulting horse or vaulting table ( pre flight segment ), then spring off of this platform to a two footed landing ( post flight segment ).

* In Die Erde is nah: die Marsexpedition ( 1970 ), by Ludek Pesek, published in English as The Earth is Near ( 1973 ), a crew of twenty men undertake the first manned mission to Mars, and after landing in the wrong area due to computer malfunction and / or human error, have to cope with vicious sand storms, and a long trek undertaken in vehicles to their original intended area of exploration.

The US government estimated there were 27 airports and / or landing strips in Niger as of 2007.

The fleet also includes 8 Lupo class frigates ( two built in Peru ), 6 PR-72P class corvettes, 4 Terrebonne Parish class landing ships, 2 Type 209 / 1100 and 4 Type 209 / 1200 class German-built diesel submarines ( the biggest submarine force in South America ), as well as patrol vessels, tankers and cargo ships.

The WGPSN strongly supports equitable selection of names from ethnic groups / countries on each map ; however, a higher percentage of names from the country planning a landing is allowed on landing site maps.

He / she may also order the Civil Aviation Department to prohibit the landing or leaving, embarking or disembarking of an aircraft.

Transport in nation of Uruguay consists of 2, 835 km of rail network, 8, 983 km of roads, 1, 600 km of navigable waterways, and 15 airports / landing fields serviced by the national airline PLUNA.

Some VTOL aircraft can operate in other modes as well, such as CTOL ( conventional take-off and landing ), STOL ( short take-off and landing ), and / or STOVL ( short take-off and vertical landing ).

VTOL is a subset of V / STOL ( vertical and / or short take-off and landing ).

When an area element is radiating as a result of being illuminated by an external source, the irradiance ( energy or photons / time / area ) landing on that area element will be proportional to the cosine of the angle between the illuminating source and the normal.

On the other side, the fishermen who, from the beginning, remained on the Southwestern coast ( probably the coasts of the first landing ) were, according to the linguists, probably originally called the Vezo ( from * ba / va / be / ve-jau – " those of the coast ", borrowed from Proto-Malayo-Javanese, today veju in Bugis, bejau in Malay, and bajo in Javanese ), which today is still the name of a Southwestern tribe.

* On 30 December 2003, Douglas DC-3C N781T was substantially damaged when the starboard undercarriage collapsed on landing at Cyril E. King Airport, Charlotte Amalie after a flight that originated at San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Once over land, he circled twice to lose height, and cut his engine at an altitude of about, making a heavy landing due to the gusty wind conditions ; the undercarriage was damaged and one blade of the propeller was shattered, but Blériot was unhurt.

The smoke emanating from the left main undercarriage wheels shows that it touched down on that main landing gear first, which is normal procedure in a left cross wind.

On one flight, he made a heavy landing and damaged the undercarriage of his aircraft.

In this case the vehicle requires wings and undercarriage ( unless landing at sea ).

Trident G-ARPI later suffered some minor undercarriage damage as a result of skidding off the runway at Basle during a cross-wind landing on the 4th February, 1970.

Additionally, the condition of the wheels proved that the undercarriage was still retracted, suggesting controlled flight into terrain rather than an attempted emergency landing.

The undercarriage or landing gear in aviation, is the structure that supports an aircraft on the ground and allows it to taxi, takeoff and land.

Aircraft with at least partially retractable landing gear did not appear until 1917, and it was not until the late 1920s and early 1930s that such aircraft became common, with Grover Loening's military aircraft designs being among the first routinely using them for the main undercarriage members, in a system later licensed and used by his friend Leroy Grumman's aviation firm.

* Belly landing of an aircraft when it crashes onto a runway with its undercarriage retracted

Many of the developed designs suggested tricycle landing gear for their undercarriage, a relatively new feature for large German military aircraft designs of that era.

Conventional landing gear, or tailwheel-type landing gear, is an aircraft undercarriage consisting of two main wheels forward of the center of gravity and a small wheel or skid to support the tail.

Tricycle gear is aircraft undercarriage, or landing gear, arranged in a tricycle fashion.

On landing, the deployment of these spoilers causes a dramatic loss of lift and hence the weight of the aircraft is transferred from the wings to the undercarriage, allowing the wheels to be mechanically braked with much less chance of skidding.

* 15 May 1973: a VASP Vickers Viscount registration PP-SRD was damaged beyond economic repair when it departed the runway on landing and the undercarriage collapsed.

* In aviation, the term refers to the structural component that attaches the undercarriage or landing gear to the airframe.

* On December 30, 2003, Douglas DC-3C N781T of Tol-Air Services was substantially damaged when the starboard undercarriage collapsed on landing after a flight that originated at San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Also included in this release were additional hands to hold the Gun Pod and landing gear that attached to the FAST Pack undercarriage armor.

It must have a maximum stall speed of in landing configuration ; a maximum of two seats ; a maximum speed in level flight with maximum continuous power ( Vh )— 138 mph ( 120 knots ) CAS ; fixed undercarriage ( except for amphibious aircraft which may have repositionable gear, and gliders which may have retractable gear ); an unpressurized cabin ; and a single non-turbine engine driving a propeller if it is a powered aircraft.

A pilot flying a plane under instrument flight rules ( typically under poor visibility conditions ) must rely on its altimeter to decide when to deploy the aircraft undercarriage and prepare for landing.

After touchdown on runway 29L problems with the undercarriage ( failure of landing gear or a burst tire ) caused the Boeing 707 to slide off the runway into the Kan River.

As a result of the landing the undercarriage failed, damaging all four engines and injuring three people.
