SunExpress Boeing 737-800 suffered a left main landing gear collapse while taxiing for departure at Antalya Airport, Türkiye yesterday. The good news? It happened during taxi. You don’t even want to imagine it occurring during takeoff or landing. A few things could be at play here: The main landing... gear shock strut relies on hydraulic fluid and compressed dry air (or nitrogen) to absorb and control loads. The oil charging valve is located near the wheels, while the gas valve sits higher up. A failure in either system could compromise strut integrity. There’s also the Proximity Switch Electronics Unit (PSEU), which monitors the air/ground system and landing gear compression sensors. Aircraft was recovered by Aircraft Recovery Lift Bags (specialized inflatable devices).show more

Imagine being on the ground and seeing that piece of 747 landing gear come flying past. 😳✈️ During the landing, part of this 747’s landing gear separated shortly after touchdown. The moment was captured on camera as the heavy component broke away and was sent flying across the runway. The aircraft managed to remain under control and come to a stop, but What could cause part of a Boeing 747’s landing gear to detach? Possible factors include excessive landing loads, pre-existing fatigue or damage, a failed attachment component or a gear malfunction.

In case you were wondering, this is how it works. A towbarless aircraft tug is used to push an aircraft back from the gate. Instead of using a towbar, it drives up to the nose wheels, clamps them in place and lifts the nose landing gear slightly off the ground. The main landing gear stays on the ground at all times. Once secured, the tug controls the steering and carefully pushes the aircraft into position for taxi. Only a small part of the aircraft's weight rests on the nose gear which is why even large aircraft like the Boeing 777 can be moved safely and smoothly. After pushback, the tug lowers the nose wheels and disconnects, and the pilots continue taxiing.

Why the 737 landing gear lever has an “OFF” position ✈️ It’s a question I get asked quite often and understandably so! “OFF” isn’t a logical position for the landing gear! The landing gear is retracted into the belly of the aircraft using hydraulic pressure. Once the gear is fully up, mechanical uplocks hold the gear safely in position. However, with the lever in the UP position, hydraulic pressure is still being applied to the system. This is unnecessary now that the gear is being held up with mechanical latches and places extra demand in the hydraulic pumps. So, once the gear has been retracted, the pilots will move the gear lever from UP to OFF as part of the after takeoff checklist. This simply removes hydraulic pressure from the retract lines. When the pilots configure the aircraft for landing, we move the landing gear lever from OFF to DOWN. This action releases the mechanical up locks and the gear is lowered using a combination of hydraulic pressure, gravity and air loads. Once the gear is fully down and locked, a green light - one for each set of wheels, will illuminate. Should the primary gear down sensors fail, we have a second set of green, gear down indicators on the overhead panel. As long as the gear is indicating down and locked on either the primary or standby indicator, the gear is down and locked and safe to land on 👍 In the very unlikely event that the gear won’t lower normally using the landing gear lever, we have a standby gear lowering system which allows the crew to manually release the gear uplocks and allow gravity to lower the gear - see my reel showing that system in operation .

On Apr. 30, 1966, the second XB-70 prototype, Air Vehicle 2 (AV 2), suffered a short circuit in the landing gear retraction system shortly after takeoff from Edwards Air Force Base. As a result of this malfunction, the nose gear was blown back into the partially retracted gear well door, and the tires were slashed. The malfunction caused hydraulic pressure to remain on three of the four main wheel brakes which, being locked when the XB-70 landed at 173 knots hours later, led to the burn-up of the Valkyrie's main landing gear tires.

WHY DOES THE BOEING 767'S MAIN LANDING GEAR TILT FORWARD? If you watch the Amazon Prime Air Boeing 767 coming in to land, you may notice something about its main landing gear: the bogies are tilted forward. This is part of the 767's landing gear design. The forward tilt means the front wheels of the main gear contact the runway first, followed by the rear wheels as the bogie levels out. This helps cushion the touchdown, distribute loads progressively, and reduce stress on the bogie structure. During development, the 767's touchdown behavior showed a tendency for forward pitching. The forward-tilted bogie helps counter this motion as the gear settles and the rear wheels come down. But the design is mostly used to fit in the gear bay to make the best use of the space. When retracted, the 767's landing gear geometry allows the bogie and wheels to fit efficiently inside the undercarriage bay, making the best possible use of limited space around the aircraft's keel beam and surrounding systems. The 767 is distinctive among Boeing aircraft in this respect, but forward-tilting main gear designs are not unique. The Airbus A350 and A380 also use forward-leaning bogies, while the A340-600 combines different orientations on its various landing gear assemblies. In a nutshell, that nose-down tilt you see on approach is exactly how the Boeing 767 was designed to land: front wheels first, bogie rotating level, then the rear wheels settling onto the runway. A video from PDX Aviation shows [N1997A], the same aircraft involved in yesterday's accident, landing at Portland Airport.

#WATCH | Air India Plane Crash | Noida, UP: Former Pilot Ehsan Khalid says, "... The Flight Data Recorder, Cockpit Voice Recorder and the ACARS data will tell exactly what may have happened. The visuals show that the aircraft went down while flying. Which means there was no mid-air explosion... The visuals show that the aircraft faced a loss of power... The loss of power can be due to engine malfunction, but it is very unlikely that both engines would lose power simultaneously... It is a very big engine, and it is rare that both engines lose power due to a bird hit in a one-minute duration... The pilot gave a mayday call. This means that the failure was seen in the cockpit... They went airborne while combating that failure... I don't understand why the landing gear was still down... The landing gear is raised as soon as the flight takes off... Since the landing gear was down, it is possible that a loss of engine was detected beforehand... There are many variables, and any speculation would be unjust... The biggest question is why the landing gear was not up. The flight was at a height of 600 feet... Whether it was one problem or multiple problems, no one can say anything yet..."

🚨 UPDATE: HERE IS EVERYTHING WE KNOW SO FAR ABOUT THE AMAZON PRIME AIR 767 THAT RAN OFF THE RUNWAY AT MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. The Boeing 767-300 cargo plane, operated by 21 Air for Amazon Prime Air, was flying Cargo South 7598 / N1997A from San Juan, Puerto Rico, to Miami. The aircraft overran Runway 30 during landing, crossed the airport perimeter and ended up near NW 67th Avenue/perimeter road. The aircraft appears to have come to rest right outside a Tesla charging/parking area near the airport. Massive plumes of black smoke were seen coming from the aircraft, and a fire was reported. All runways and taxiways were temporarily closed and a ground stop was issued at MIA. Video of the landing appears to show the Boeing 767 beginning to lean to one side before veering off the runway. WHAT CAUSED THE AIRCRAFT TO LEAN IS NOT YET KNOWN. A possible landing gear failure has been suggested, but that has NOT been confirmed. 🎧 AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL AUDIO FROM THE INCIDENT HAS ALSO EMERGED. UNCONFIRMED REPORTS ARE CURRENTLY CIRCULATING OF 6 FATALITIES, ALONG WITH INJURIES. THE DEATH TOLL HAS NOT BEEN OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED. This is still developing. FULL GROUND STOP IS STILL IN EFFECT. Prayers for all there. 🙏

🚨 JUST IN: UNITED AIRLINES BOEING 777 TAKES OFF WITH MAJOR FUEL LEAK This is happening WAY too frequently with both Boeing and United The 777 was taking off from Sydney, Australia in route to San Francisco when it was captured on video dumping fuel all over the runway, which is just another example of technical failures occurring recently on United’s Boeing fleet. We’ve also seen another United Airlines 777 lose a wheel during takeoff ago, and a United 737’s landing gear collapse while landing in Houston within the past three days alone. IS THIS A RESULT OF DEI HIRES?

Alright, the BFU report on that Lufthansa 787 nose gear collapse at Frankfurt is out. And it’s exactly what I figured the second I saw the video. They were troubleshooting an MLG door control fault. Book says move the gear lever to UP to do the test. Problem? The nose downlock pin never went in. It was sitting in the avionics compartment . Main gear pins were fine.. nose one wasn’t. I’ve done this exact kind of job. On a B787-10. I had an SLG actuator fault after a hard landing. Had to pressure up the hydraulics and put the lever UP to deactivate it. Same thing on a B787-8 with an MLG control solenoid issue. Every single time the AMM and the DDG hammer the same warning: install the downlock pins first or you risk the gear retracting on you. You can’t just flip that lever up casually either.. there’s an override you push while you lift it. But once you do, if the pin’s missing… hydraulics do what hydraulics do. B787s have tons of redundancy in the air. On the ground during maintenance? That physical pin is the last line of defence. That’s why the main gear stayed put and the nose didn’t.

The MD-11 has always had a critical design flaw. It was manageable until someone screwed up. To improve fuel efficiency and range, its horizontal stabilizer was made smaller than those of earlier DC-10 variants. While the design delivered performance benefits, it also reduced the aircraft's natural pitch stability, particularly at slower speeds during approach and landing. To help compensate, the MD-11 relied heavily on computerized stability augmentation systems. Many crews also preferred flying slightly faster approaches, which improved pitch stability but could make the aircraft more challenging to manage during touchdown due to its weight and sensitivity in roll and yaw. These characteristics became evident in several high-profile accidents. In 1997, a FedEx MD-11 arriving at Newark was reportedly operating under the belief that runway length was limited, prompting the crew to aim for an immediate touchdown. The aircraft landed hard, bounced, and became unstable. Instead of executing a go-around, attempts to salvage the landing resulted in another severe impact, collapsing the landing gear and destroying the aircraft in a post-crash fire. All five crew members survived. The accident highlighted a key lesson: when an MD-11 bounced significantly after touchdown, a go-around was often the safest option. That lesson resurfaced in tragic fashion in 2009 at Narita, Japan. During strong and gusty crosswinds, a FedEx MD-11 touched down hard and bounced. Believing the aircraft could still be recovered onto the runway, the crew attempted to continue the landing. The resulting control inputs led to an even harder impact, loss of control, and a crash that destroyed the aircraft and claimed the lives of both pilots. 📹: buybygb

Raising a collapsed nose of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner. On 8 March 2018, Boeing 787-8 BBJ N507BJ suffered a nose gear collapse at Moses Lake, Washington, while undergoing maintenance and VIP conversion work. This was a result of the NLG downlock pin being accidentally installed in the apex pin inner bore, which is adjacent to the correct hole for the downlock pin in the NLG lock link assembly. When the gear-up command was issued, the nose gear retracted and the aircraft dropped onto its nose. The aircraft sustained significant damage to the forward fuselage and engines. As a result, Boeing issued a service bulletin to mandate installing an insert into the NLG lock link apex pin inner bore. The insert prevents the NLG downlock pin from being inserted in the apex pin bore instead of the adjacent NLG downlock pin hole. NLG: Nose Landing Gear 📹: WhatYouHaventSeen(YouTube)

Shortly after departure for Guatemala City, the crew reported hydraulic system issues and requested an immediate return. Upon landing around 10:30 a.m., the aircraft veered off Runway 25 and split into two, triggering a major emergency response. The final report (CR-ACC-CO-002-2022) later revealed a complex chain of events involving hydraulic failure and abnormal thrust lever movement during the landing roll-at a phase where deceleration

SU25 - Soviet Aviation Engineering and Adaptations The Soviets understood that it would be extremely difficult to win the technological race against the West, so they sought to offset this disadvantage through practical adaptations. Soviet engineering emphasized simplicity, robustness, and the ability to operate in hostile environments as harsh winters and limited infrastructure. In the case of the Su-25, it features reinforced landing gear with low-pressure tires, elevated engine air intakes with protections against foreign object debris (FOD), heavy underside armor to withstand impacts, and STOL capability, allowing operations from runways as short as 300–500 m in poor conditions such as dirt or mud. Beyond the Su-25 ground-operating characteristics, which have largely been inherited by the modern Su-34, many MiG series aircraft could be equipped with skis on the landing gear for takeoff and landing on snow or ice, a capability regularly used in Arctic operations.
