History Of Landing Gear. by the 1930s, landing gear was being developed for other aircraft models, bringing with it an increase in speed and efficiency. landing gears are designed in a retractable manner in order not to disturb the aerodynamic flow in the air in many aircraft. substitution of track landing gear for wheel gear would eliminate the need for long, heavily enforced runways and facilitate operations. bicycle and motorcycle wheels were first used, which in turn, gave way to specially designed landing gear and wheels that absorbed the extreme loads imparted during takeoffs and landing. In addition, braking systems were installed to provide safer and more efficient control for slowing an airplane after landing. the idea of applying track landing gear to an aircraft in order to achieve flotation was first presented to the air corps by j.w. this paper discusses landing gear basic requirements with a review of historic and current equipment designs, and concludes. landing gear is not only based on the use of wheels, but rather throughout the history of aviation it has been adapted to the.
