This document covers recommendations for the application of existing qualified and approved in-service fixed wing aircraft tires, wheels and brakes to military and commercial rotorcraft. NOTE: This document does not address the use of radial tires due to insufficient data to support their approved use on rotorcraft, see paragraph 4.3.14 for specific impact on ground resonance. This document provides recommended parameters and data to enable evaluation of existing aircraft tires, wheels and brakes for rotorcraft applications. It is intended for use by commercial and military personnel in formulating detail design and performance specifications. It is not intended to be used as a procurement document.
