32-10-00 LANDING GEAR
The EXTRA 200 is designed as a conventional tail wheel
airplane, with an unretractable landing gear.
The landing gear consists of a 2 wheel main landing gear
and a tail wheel.
The main wheels are interconnected and attached to the
fuselage by means of an U-shaped carrier. This carrier is of
integral glasfibre design and incorporates wheel alignement,
spring and dampening action.
The tail wheel is self steering with full swivel capability.
The values for wheel rake and toe-in of main landing gear
are given in Figure 1.

32-40-00 WHEELS AND BRAKES
32-40-01 General
The main wheels have standard brand 500x5 rims, six-ply
rated 5.00-5-tyres with tubes, according to FAA Standard
TSO-C62. Cleveland 40-151 wheels with 30-164 brake
assemblies are used. The main wheels are covered with glas
fibre designed fairings of which Figure 4 shows the layer
sequence.
The tailwheel consists of a 5 inch tire and an aluminium rim.
The Cleveland design features an external brake in which
the disc is external to the wheel with the brake caliper
floating over the disc.
The brake system (refer to Figure 5) consists of a brake
assembly located at the inner side of the wheel, a master
cylinder (1) at the rear rudder pedals each, and a brake fluid
reservoir (2) mounted at the engine side of the firewall. The
particular parts of the brake system are interconnected by
brake lines consisting of aluminium tubes and flexible
hoses (A-F). However from Serial No. 22 the brake lines in
the cockpit area are replaced by a KNAPP hose system.
The tail wheel has no brake.
IMPORTANT Test brakes after maintaining the brake system. Actu-
ated brakes shall keep the aircraft standing with engine
runnung at 1800 rpm and maximum propeller angle of
attack. With applied brakes and powersetting above
1800 rpm the wheels may slide on grass.
NOTE For further information concerning main wheels and
brakes refer to Cleveland Wheels and Brakes Mainte-
nance Manual.
