The Boeing 777 is equipped with a so-called semi-levered landing gear system.
It allows the aircraft to rotate🛫early by shifting the centre of rotation from the main axle to aft axle of the three-axle landing gear truck.
One of the benefits is that the aircraft can take off on shorter runways or transport more payload📦📦.
How many tires do you guess are installed in total on a Boeing 777-300ER?
Enjoy your day☀️
