ABSTRACT An aircraft landing wheel rotating means has an airscoop mounted on the undercarriage unit between a pair of landing wheels fitted with tyres. A wheel outlet in each side of the airscoop directs the air- flow over turbine blades formed integrally with the landing wheels as spokes interconnecting the rims to the wheel hubs (which incorporate disc breaking systems). The airscoop has a rearward venting outlet which is selectively closed by hinged doors and/or flaps to direct the airflow to the turbine blades or opened to allow a portion of the airflow to bypass the turbine blades and so reduce the drag produced by the. airscoop as the undercarriage unit is lowered prior to landing or on take-off. -1-
