A380 Main Landing Gear
Hi All,

Can anyone shed some light as to why the main landing gear bogey for the A380 tilts forwards compared to that of say the A330/A340/B777 which tilts backwards when the main landing gear is extended in mid-air?Does it have any benefits or performance gains by having it tilt forwards?

Warmest Regards,
Vibes
