The left and right main landing gears on an aircraft are normally controlled by separate hydraulic power packs (HPP). Each HPP is sized for the load of the respective main landing gear. During failure of one of the HPP, a backup valve actuates to allow the other HPP to operate both main landing gears. With the backup valve actuated, the pump of the functioning HPP is coupled to the reservoirs of both HPPs and to the load paths to both main landing gears.
