LANDING GEAR

The CC18-180 has a tail wheel configuration. The main
landing gear legs are made from welded steel tubing
(Figure 7-1). A combination of rubber shock rings and a
hydraulic strut provide shock absorption. The main
wheels carry 8.50x6-6 tires. 26X10.5-6 tires are offered
as optional equipment.

Each main wheel is provided with a set of single disc
brakes. The left and right systems are independent of
each other. There are two valves that operate the parking
brake located under the pilot's seat.
