Avgeekfriday time!
Do you know why aircraft tyres are filled With nitrogen Instead of air?

Aircraft tyres are filled with nitrogen instead of ordinary air primarily for safety and reliability. Nitrogen is supplied in a dry form, which helps prevent moisture build-up inside the tyres and reduces pressure variations associated with moisture as temperatures change.

During take-off and landing, aircraft tyres experience extreme loads, high speeds, and significant heat. Using dry nitrogen also reduces the presence of oxygen and moisture inside the tyre, helping minimise oxidation and corrosion in the wheel assembly.

Although ordinary air already contains around 78% nitrogen, aviation uses controlled, dry nitrogen to meet strict operational and safety requirements.

It's ! Did you know that an Airbus A380 departure can delay a narrow-body aircraft's takeoff by up to 3 minutes?

With a maximum takeoff weight of around 560 tonnes and a wingspan of nearly 80 meters, the Airbus A380 produces some of the strongest wake vortices of any commercial aircraft. Extensive flight testing showed that these vortices required additional separation beyond the standard HEAVY category, leading ICAO to introduce the dedicated SUPER wake turbulence category.

As lift is generated, high-pressure air beneath the wings spills around the wingtips into the low-pressure region above, forming counter-rotating vortices. On an aircraft as large as the A380, these spiraling air currents are especially powerful. They descend and spread behind the aircraft, and while still intact, they can significantly disrupt the control of a following aircraft.

As a result, a MEDIUM classified aircraft (such as a Boeing 737 or Airbus A320) departing from the same runway behind an A380 must typically wait 3 minutes, giving the vortices time to dissipate before it's safe to line up and depart, which for some lighter aircraft can even go up to 4 minutes!
