Notes:
(a) K may be determined as follows: K = 0.25 for W = 1361 kg or less; K = 0.33 for W =
2722 kg or greater, with linear variation of K between these weights.
(b) For the purpose of design, the maximum load factor is assumed to occur throughout
the shock absorber stroke from 25% deflection to 100% deflection unless otherwise
shown and the load factor must be used with whatever shock absorber extension is
most critical for each element of the landing gear.
(c) Unbalanced moments must be balanced by a rational conservation method.
(d) L is defined in VLA 725 (b).
(e) N is the limit inertia load factor, at the c.g of the airplane, selected under VLA 473
(d),(f), and (g).
