Original Abstract Submitted
A nose gear spin down apparatus includes a spin down device and a resistance device. The spin down device is rotatable about a central longitudinal axis. The spin down device rotates about the central longitudinal axis after engagement with a spinning nose gear wheel of an aircraft. The resistance device contacts the spin down device without imparting a resistance to the spin down device. The resistance device imparts the resistance to the spin down device after conditions are met.
