skwal 9 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Quoting: " Weighing 3,400 kilograms (7,500) pounds) this main landing gear is one of the largest in commercial service. This particular gear was removed from an A330 that made a successful forced landing in 2001. " Â Do 3400x2 that would equal to ~7000tons (or 15000lbs). so 7 tons is your answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Herman 1591 Posted January 2, 2020 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 2, 2020 And the nose gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skwal 9 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 4 hours ago, Herman said: And the nose gear?  Snap, forgot that aircraft have no gears I think it was mentioned A350 design video that nose weight weight is under 2 tons. So i'd assume A330 is around there.  So to correct my math, it say all together @Ausflight you're looking @ around ~8.5 - 10tons for the whole under carriage.
