1.	Drag brace is used to __________(a) withstand aerodynamic loads and breaking loads(b) reduce drag(c) lowers the weight of an aircraft(d) decrease the drag produced by gear onlyThe question was asked during an interview for a job.Question is taken from Gear-Retraction Geometry topic in chapter Landing Gear and Subsystems of Aircraft Design
Answer» Correct answer is (a) WITHSTAND aerodynamic loads and breaking loads For EXPLANATION I WOULD say: Typical landing gear retraction arrangement includes a diagonal arm. This diagonal arm for nose wheel is called DRAG BRACE. Drag brace is used to withstand the breaking loads and aerodynamic loads as well.
