Aircraft use report data, reported by airlines always includes a problem related to Aviation power units, landing gear systems, and navigation systems. Among them, the failure of the landing gear system is likely to cause abnormal events such as aircraft return flight, backup landing, etc., which will bring economic losses to the company and bring hidden dangers to aviation safety. The best solution for this is to use proximity sensors for the proper landing of aircraft. The basic principle behind this is to send the sensor signal to the control unit and send control signals to the executing part. After comprehensive calculation and accurate comparison the margin is controlled.Nowadays the landing gear of modern civil aircraft includes two systems i) normal retracting ii) emergency releasing. The landing gear control system uses telex control in the control mode and is cross-linked with other systems. Proximity sensors are widely used to detect the position of the landing gear. The current position of the gear is judged by an inductance type proximity sensor according to the position of a metallic part mounted on gear and proper landing is done.
