SINCE the original British patent for telescopic oleo-pneumatic shock absorbers for aircraft landing gear was drawn up in 1915 by Vickers engineer T. S. Duncan — with his invention of the positive recoil damping principle — Weybridge has been in the forefront of landing gear development on all types of aircraft for over half a century. Today, as a member company of British Aircraft Corporation, the Weybridge resources in this field are unique to a prime aircraft manufacturer. The landing gear units for the VC10 and B.A.C. One-Eleven airliner families and the supporting design, production and testing facilities at Weybridge are among the most advanced in the world.
