What aircraft has the largest tires???


I realize that you're speaking in the present tense, but the all-time
champion was certainly the original B-36. You can see the tire to this
day at the Wright-Patt museum in Dayton OH.

(As designed, the 36 could land on so few runways that the single
tires were soon replaced by maller double-tire bogies.)


all the best -- Dan Ford
