Study Notes
Landing Gear Sensing Systems
- Landing gear condition is monitored by ground and air safety sensors (proximity switches)
- These sensors transmit signals to the landing gear control and interface unit (LGCIU) or the Weight−on−wheels (WOW) logic cards
- These signals provide "air" or "ground" control for various systems and components
- The landing gear systems controlled by air-ground sensing are:
- Control gear lever lock system
- Antiskid system
