An aircraft landing gear appears simple when viewed from a distance: a long leg, a wheel, and perhaps a door hiding the mechanism during flight. Inside that compact assembly is a carefully organized mechanical system that carries ground loads, absorbs kinetic energy, supports braking and retracts into an aircraft bay. The AEROLATCH G7 interactive exploded-view simulator makes these relationships visible. Rather than showing a single static illustration, it lets you select and move individual parts, investigate their mounting points, assemble them in a dependency-checked order, and operate several articulated mechanisms.
The model features a fictional twin-wheel retractable main landing gear with an oleo-pneumatic shock strut, an axle and bogie structure, two wheel hubs, brake components, a trunnion pivot, a telescopic hydraulic actuator and hinged bay doors. There are 140 independent mechanical objects distributed across eight named subsystems. Every component has a stable identifier so the same element can be found in the assembly navigator, in the 3D viewport, and in the exported GLB files.
Although the AEROLATCH G7 is not a replica of any production landing gear, its components represent understandable engineering principles. This laboratory intentionally distinguishes those general principles from its invented dimensions.
This is an educational, illustrative model of a fictional product: part names, masses, materials and operating figures are simplified and are not a manufacturer's drawing, a design basis or a safety/acceptance document.
