MAIN GEAR WHEEL WELL SEAL SYSTEM - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
1.  General
A.  When the airplane is in flight and the landing gear retracted, the main gear wheel well seal system eliminates noise and reduces drag by preventing air from flowing in and out of the wheel well. With landing gear retracted, the wheel well opening is faired to the body by the tire and a special hubcap installed on the outboard wheel and by a fairing ring installed at the lower edge of the wheel well opening. The circular cross section of the tire leaves a space between the tire and outer edge of the wheel well, this space is closed by the seals as the gear is fully retracted. (See figure 1.)
B.  Each wheel well seal consists of a series of flexible blade-type segments around the periphery of the wheel well, except at the openings on the outboard edge where the strut must pass through. Seal segments are held in place by a series of seal retainers on the upper and lower surface of the segments at the outer edge of the segments. The seal segments are secured between the seal retainer segments with bolts.

MAIN GEAR WHEEL WELL BLADE-TYPE SEAL - REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
1. General
A.  The seal segments may be replaced singly, in groups, or all may be replaced at one time. If all segments are being replaced, exercise care to reinstall seal retainer segments in the same position from which were removed. Each seal segment and each seal retainer segment was designed to fit at a designated area.
