Landing Gear

The landing gear is one of the most critical components of any aircraft, forming the undercarriage that supports the entire aircraft during landing, takeoff, and ground operations. Beyond simply bearing the aircraft’s weight, the landing gear provides stability on various surfaces—from runways to snow or water—and protects the airframe from potential damage.

A landing gear system is a highly complex assembly, consisting of wheels, tires, brakes, hydraulic systems, energy absorption mechanisms, actuators, and cylinders, often incorporating specialized components to ensure safety and reliability. Using robust, certified, and high-quality materials is essential in landing gear construction to prevent structural failures and guarantee passenger safety.

At Neba Altia Aviation, we understand the intricate engineering behind landing gear systems and the exacting standards required by leading aircraft manufacturers such as Airbus and Boeing. Both companies invest heavily in precision engineering to produce landing gear systems that meet the most demanding safety and performance standards. Airbus develops landing gear for its family of aircraft through its Airbus Landing Gear Integration division in France, supported by a global supply chain. Boeing designs and manufactures landing gear for models including the 737, 747, 777, and 787, ensuring these critical components are fabricated and installed to exact specifications.

Landing gear systems undergo rigorous testing and certification procedures, often exceeding regulatory requirements. Collaboration with key suppliers and industry experts ensures that every component is capable of withstanding extreme loads, maintaining operational safety, and delivering smooth, reliable landings for both crews and passengers.

Neba Altia Aviation provides expertise, high-quality components, and support for landing gear systems, ensuring that every aircraft we service maintains optimal safety, performance, and reliability from takeoff to touchdown.
