- genman 3y agoIf your window is before or after the wing then you could possibly see the side wheels (I'm not sure that it applies to every aircraft but I certainly have seen them and have wondered the suspension necessary to land smoothly).

- chris1993 3y agoThis was on a Dash-8 and I was a passenger seated beside the wing. The aircraft shook when the tyre burst and the cabin crew looked concerned but nobody did anything. Eventually, an hour into the flight, one of the flight crew came back with a torch (it was nighttime) to look at the window at the landing gear.
