Gravity drop - Definition and Overview |
|
|
|
|
Gravity drop refers to the use of gravity to deploy landing gear on an airplane in the event of hydraulic, engine, or power failure.
One notable use of gravity drop was in the Gimli Glider incident, when a Boeing 767 ran out of fuel, thus losing all hydraulic power.
