Sur le B 747, les atterrisseurs principaux sont au nombre de 4. Deux atterrisseurs, principaux, d'aile et deux atterrisseurs, principaux de fuselage. L'extrémité de chaque jambe de train possède deux essieux. Sur chacune de leurs extrémités sont fixées deux fusées. Quatre roues sont montées sur celles-ci. [...] L'inconvénient [de ce genre de dispositif] est le problème de logement du train. Il se fait dans l'emplanture de l'aile ou dans le fuselage ou dans un fuseau prévu à cet effet dans la partie arrière de l'aile. 5, record 2, French, - logement%20de%20train
