  • Close up, touchdowns are all subtly different, like snowflakes. This is a compilation of 2-, 4-, and 6- wheelers around the moment of contact with runway.
    A special mention for anyone who can identify each plane type!
    First correct answer (very very quick) was Varun Solanki. In order: 757 A320 787 777 757 fokker100 A330 A320 787 777 757 A320 787.

      Jordi- T&C noted. I expect you know that none of these landings is what a Boeing/Airbus/Fokker engineer would be consider a firm landing. A few showed initial contact followed by a second. The worse of them would be called a "shallow skip". This happens when the sink rate is near zero and minor flight path or runway grade variations cause more than one runway contact. A bounce is when the aircraft hits the runway with enough vertical energy to cause it to briefly climb before settling again. Either way, it's some damned good video!

      if the wheels were to pre-spin to the rate of say 150 knots(170 MPH) it would cause a gyro effect and make the plane much less maneuverable during crosswind corrections..... gyros don't know the wind is blowing...they just fight to stay str8.................just my best guess

    While many of these look like bounced landings, as the wheels touch and then leave ground again, they aren't bounces at all. Instead, they are VERY smooth landings. In a bounced landing, the struts would bottom out, then extend again. But on many of these you see the struts remain extended, until the wheels spin-up enough to activate the auto ground-spoilers, at which time you see the weight of the aircraft settle heavily onto the struts and fully compress them. Interesting to see how much shimmy and vibration there is before the full weight of the aircraft settles onto the landing gear.

    1:00 - Softest landing EVER! It's amazing seeing this at such a slow speed because you can see smoke coming from the tires before it begins turning at all. Wild! Makes you wonder why there's not some simple method of getting the tires spinning before they touch down. That would significantly extend the life of those expensive beasts. Obviously they don't feel that savings (thus, safety) justifies the additional weight of a system like that. I have confidence they could create a system to take advantage of the wind speed on approach, maybe just using fins inside and out of the tires and possibly directing the wind using the venturi effect. They're bright people. LOL
    Ok, maybe the softest landing ever is at 2:00. Lol

    Electrics motors were tested during WW2 to pre spin the main landing gear on fighter planes. The weight and complexity of the systems couldn't be engineered out. Also a failure of either main gear electric motor sent the plane into a deadly crab landing attitude. Most of the test planes crashed . It is cheaper to replace the tires than to replace a severely damaged fighter plane and possibly kill a highly trained pilot.

      Too fiddly and space-wasting for little gain. The aerodynamic effect would not increase the speed of the wheels rotation enough to reduce wear on what are relatively inexpensive things, the tyres can be re-treaded several times before they are destroyed. The space that adding fins that would create enough rotation to make a noticeable difference would be sizeable, and would mean increasing the size of the landing gear bays, in turn reducing cargo space which could make far more money than the reduction in cost. Maintenance of such systems would cost extra man hours maintenance wise as they would be on wheels spinning at hundreds of RPM, likely needing testing for cracks/degradation every 200 aircraft hours. And finally, an important point. On take off, when the aircraft leaves the runway, those tyres are still spinning pretty quick. When the pilot calls gear up, the landing gear is lifted into the gear bays. Because you don't want a couple of tons of high speed metal whirring about uncontrolled in the aircraft, the wheels are stopped and held by a large wall of essentially brake pad like material that stops the wheel moving. If you add fins to the wheels, they will be spinning much faster as the gear retracts, and may actually increase tyre wear along with the arrestor plate in the gear bay, negating any positive effect they had.
      Not to rain on your idea, simply to inform. :)

      ***** I wanted to argue on your notes, and then I saw you signing as an aeronautical engineer, so I must respect your expertise.
      Thanks for the info btw ;)

      surely the very fact that the moment the tires make contact with the tarmac and generate smoke due to the rubber (or what ever the tire compound is) is burning with the friction at the point of contact qualify as unnecessary ware, pulling a wheel spin every time you started a journey in your car that generated smoke, the life span of your tires would be greatly reduced.

      carsos00 Very true, however, as I explained previously, that unnecessary wear is cheaper and easier to deal with compared to the proposed way of combating it. Aircraft design is all about trade offs. Electronic taxi is a prime example, companies have been trying for years to design a system that saves money and resources such as fuel and wear and tear an aircraft experiences during taxi. Only recently has it become a feasible possibility, as the technology has become cheaper and the designs have become more refined. Everything is a cost/benefit analysis, and as the proposed idea has no positive safety impact, at the moment at least, the basic principle stands that re treading a tyre is cheaper than designing, manufacturing and maintaining said system.
