Abstract

1,205,263. Ski type landing gear. WESTLAND AIRCRAFT Ltd. 29 Aug., 1968 [4 Sept., 1967], No. 40336/68. Heading B7G. An aircraft has a ski type landing gear which comprises two main skid members 10, at least two forward cantilever members 11 and an arcuate rear cross-member 13. The cantilever members are built into the skid members and pivotally attached to a fuselage at 12. The rear cross-member 13, also built in to the skid members, is attached to the fuselage at 14 and has vibration and/or recoil dampers 15 attached near the lower ends of the cross member and incorporating self-aligning ball joints at both the cross-member and fuselage attachment points. Attachment lugs 16 are provided on the skid members 10 for ground handling wheels and drag struts from the aircraft to the rear cross-member may be fitted for yaw stiffness.
