A detachable airplane wheel prerotation/landing brake cooling device is disclosed that comprises: an outer circular cage rim, an inner circular cage rim confronting and spaced apart from the outer circular cage rim, and a plurality of spaced apart arcuate blades spanning across and connecting the outer circular cage rim to the inner circular cage rim at a slant. Each arcuate blade includes a first section connected to the outer circular cage rim and a second section connected to inner circular cage rim. The plurality of slanted arcuate blades are, when the detachable airplane wheel prerotation/landing brake cooling device is being impinged by an airstream during the landing of the airplane, configured to (i) rotate the wheel about the axle in a forward direction, and (ii) funnel air into the plurality of annular spaces adjacent to the plurality of heat shields to thereby remove heat away from the disc brake assembly.
