Abstract
491,298. Aircraft alighting gear. MERCIER, P. E. Feb. 17, 1938, No. 5012. Convention date, April 1, 1937. [Class 4] In an aircraft having two vertical fins disposed at the ends of the tail plane a ground supporting member such as a tail skid, tail wheel, or runner is provided within each fin and in front of the elastic axis of the tail plane. In this position the mass of the landing gear is effective in preventing tail unit flutter. A tail plane 1 provided with elevators 2 carries at each end a vertical fin 3 to which is hinged arudder 4, the fins constituting fairings for the rear wheels. A forward centrally disposed wheel 8 is carried by a link 9 pivoted to a-steerable member 10 and to a shock-absorber 11. A fairing 12 may constitute a rudder as deseribed in Specification 482,080.
