FAQ

What are aircraft wheel chocks?


Aircraft wheel chocks are wedge-shaped blocks, typically made of rubber, polyurethane, wood, or metal, placed snugly in front and behind aircraft wheels to prevent unintended movement while parked. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Why are chocks necessary if the parking brake is applied?


Chocks provide a failsafe for unintended movement—especially useful when hydraulic parking brakes slowly lose pressure over time or during extended idle periods. They also enable pilots to release hot brakes so they can cool down, without mobility risk. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

How should aircraft wheel chocks be positioned?


For effective immobilization, chocks should be placed snugly against each wheel, both in front and behind. This approach prevents forward and backward movement under wind, slope, or fuel load shifts. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

From which materials are wheel chocks made, and what are the benefits?


Chocks are made from materials like rubber, polyurethane, wood, or metal. Polyurethane offers lightweight strength and resistance to oils and fuels; rubber excels in grip; wood remains economical; and metal chocks are highly durable—though each material comes with specific use conditions. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Do aircraft wheel chocks need regular inspection?


Yes. Regular checks for wear, slipperiness, or contamination are advised. Damaged or degraded chocks should be replaced promptly to maintain reliability and ground safety.
