(2) For the purpose of design, the maximum load factor is assumed to occur throughout the shock absorber stroke from 25% deflection to 100% deflection unless otherwise shown and the load factor must be used with whatever shock absorber extension is most critical for each element of the landing gear. (3) Unbalanced moments must be balanced by a rational conservation method. (4) L is defied in [CS-VLA 725(e)](#_DxCrossRefBm584936723). (5) n is the limit inertia load factor, at the c.g. of the aeroplane, selected under [CS-VLA 473(d),(f), and (g)](#_DxCrossRefBm584936722).
