Some issues of forecasting airplane landing gear shimmy on the base of bench testing of a gear strut on a rotating drum, as well as airdrome tests are considered as a part of general free-of-shimmy safety considerations. Some details of dedicated GVT techniques for landing gears and data processing algorithms to get experimental stiffness and damping of a landing gear strut used to tune mathematical models are considered. The efficiency of the airdrome shimmy ground tests is evaluated as a means to check safety against shimmy and to assess the gear design updates. The results of evaluating the efficiency of hydraulic dampers in the torque link of a main landing gear strut are discussed, as well as fail-safe issues concerning wheels steering/control system failures.
