22、 information can be obtained fromsuch sources as referenees 1 to 64 flw a number ofobsolete or foreign types of tires and for a fewmodern American tires. Ilowever, it is doubtfulwhether the landing-gear designer will find in theliterature experimental data which are directlypertilwnt to the particul
