A trunnion, pivoting on an axis parallel to the airplane center line, provides the main attachment for each main landing gear. Trunnion support bearings are carried in a torsion box attached to the wing rear spar. Drag and side loads are transmitted from the oleo strut to the structure through brace struts... 2, record 1, English, - gear%20trunnion

Assembling the glider out of its trailer, it is important to ensure there is enough clearance under the wheel to allow full extension before it touches the ground. Otherwise the strut will not lock over center and the gear will collapse when the glider is taken off the fuselage dolly. 3, record 2, English, - fuselage%20dolly

This truss segment, called "S5, "is a mirror image of the P5 truss segment that arrived for processing at Kennedy Space Center in July 2001. The S5 truss segment is a 10-1/2-by-15-foot aluminum structure that will weigh 3, 900 pounds when fully processed... Items to be attached to the S5 truss include handholds to be used by spacewalking astronauts, a strut assembly, multi-layer thermal blankets, and the installation of the PVRGF. 6, record 3, English, - third%20port%20truss%20segment

The P5 and S5 segments are merely spacers that will provide enough room for the solar arrays to track the sun and not interfere with the other equipment, for example, the waste-heat radiators and antennas. The waste-heat radiators attached to segments S1 and P1 also must be clear of array movement. 7, record 3, English, - third%20port%20truss%20segment

The assembly sequence of the trusses on the International Space Station does not usually correspond to the number assigned to each segment of the struss structure. Trusses are numbered as follows: P1, P3, P4, P5, P6 (port side) and S1, S3, S4, S5, S6 (starboard side). In this case, the P5 truss is referred to as the third port truss segment. 4, record 3, English, - third%20port%20truss%20segment
