Why In The World Does The Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner Have Fewer Wheels Than The Airbus A350-1000? At first glance, the landing gear of modern widebody aircraft can look almost identical. Large twin-engine jets sit low on the ground, supported by multiple wheels arranged in similar patterns, and unless you look closely, it is easy to assume they all follow the same design philosophy. But if you take a closer look, subtle differences begin to appear, and those differences reveal some very important engineering decisions. So in this video, we take a look at why the Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner has fewer wheels than the Airbus A350-1000, and how factors like aircraft weight, structural design, and runway limitations determine something as fundamental as how many wheels a plane needs.
