Abstract: An aircraft wheel rotator comprising plow like deflectors and fan like spokes on the wheels. The plow like deflectors have a bottom pan which causes air impinging thereon to be funneled downwardly and rearwardly with increased velocity, and thence backward to impinge on fan like spokes which are integral with the aircraft wheels. The result of having this air stream impinge on the fan like spokes of the wheels, the spokes being suitably oriented to provide resistance to the incoming air stream, is that the wheels will begin to spin due to the air flow before the aircraft has landed on the ground. This spin up effect of the wheels prior to landing minimizes flat spots on the tires due to wheels that are encountering the ground while stationary, and therefore provide additional life for the tires, as well as improved safety for the aircraft.
