[Undercarriage]
- Looking up at the rear of XS590's nose gear leg.
- XN685's nose with nose gear at far right. Note the approach lights on the upper nose gear door.
- Looking up and slightly back into
XN685's port main wheel bay. Legs are dirty blue-grey, bay internals are mostly very dirty
semi-gloss white.
- Main gear leg and wheel.
- Gear leg again, this time viewed from outboard.
- XS590's starboard main gear viewed from ahead.
- The inner part of the gear bay (the bit where the wheel lies when retracted). The
diagonal line is a bit of rope holding the door semi-closed.
| ARRESTOR HOOK AND AIRBRAKE |
- XS590's arrestor hook from behind and slightly to starboard, looking forward.
- XN685's drooped arrestor hook viewed from ahead and to starboard, showing door shape.
- XS590's airbrake viewed from port...
- ...and from starboard and further away.
