Meggitt Aircraft Braking System For Civil Aircraft/Business Jets/Engines/Civil Helicopters

Over 160 aircraft platforms use Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems wheels and brakes. Approximately 34,000 aircraft take off and land with Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems wheels and brakes. Our wheels and brakes make over 15 million landings every year.

Source: ACAS and proprietary databases. Statistic is based on an operating day of 12-hours, resulting in an average landing time of 0.95 seconds.

Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems carbon products have accumulated in excess of 20-years in-service experience on over 45 aircraft platforms. Proven in all operating environments on commercial aircraft, from small general aviation aircraft to large passenger jets, our carbon brake products are amongst the best in the world.

Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems is specified on over 100 aircraft platforms currently in operation, with a fleet size in excess of 20,000 aircraft. Our combined experience dates back to our invention of multi-disc steel aircraft brakes in the 1930's and includes the very latest sintered pad technology currently used on modern production commercial aircraft.

Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems pioneered brake control systems on aircraft over 50 years ago and have since been investing in the development of market leading products such as state-of-the-art brake-by-wire systems (BBWS) and tire pressure indicating systems (TPIS). We are one of only a few companies in the world that can provide complete integrated braking systems that include the wheels, brakes and brake control element; we have successfully demonstrated this capability on over 50 aircraft platforms currently in operation today.
