Market Driver

Grave Safety Risks Posed by Conventional Landing Gear to Create New Growth Opportunities

Conventional landing gear, also known as tailwheels, have been commonly used in traditional airplanes and some older aircraft models, but they pose significant safety risks. These landing gear systems consist of two wheels placed in a forward position relative to the center of gravity, making them prone to a dangerous phenomenon called "ground looping". This occurs when the tail of the aircraft bypasses the center of gravity, causing the pilot to lose control of the plane's direction. Additionally, the smaller size of the tires attached to tailwheel units increases the risk of the propeller tripping over holes in the ground.

To address these disadvantages, airliners are increasingly adopting electrically-controlled landing gear and anti-skid brake management systems to improve the reliability, accuracy, and safety of their aircraft. This shift towards next-generation technologies is expected to drive growth in the aircraft landing gear market.
