DESIGN & ANALYSIS OF A HELICOPTER LANDING GEAR
General advice
• Read the assignment brief and the marking scheme carefully!
• There is no single correct answer to the assignment; however there are many wrong answers.
• The report has no word limit, so you must decide how to present your work in a concise manner whilst still giving evidence of how much work you have done. As a guide, between 2000 and 4000 words for the main body of text should suffice (text in figure captions, graphs, appendices etc. are not counted).
 For example: an A4 page of 12 pt text will contain between 400 and 500 words. If you have a figure on each page, this is reduced to around 250 words, so you would expect to have 16 pages at a maximum (not including the appendices).
• Split the report into sections e.g. Results; Discussion; Conclusions: References etc…
• In the Introduction, give the aims and objectives of the work. Describe the project and give some background information (research). Do not simply copy and paste the assignment brief.
