For the time being, I don't think I add enough time. sorry I also have no particular experience in rigging or animating aircrafts. So it is really difficult to automate things in this situation. If you have some blend files containing nice armatures for aircrafts, it would help me to imagine what kind of features could be implemented for rigging automation.

In the meantime, Rigacar can be helpful if you want to bake wheels animation for your aircraft models. For the rotation, the baker needs a bone named "Root" to track the movement and another named "MCH-Wheels" to create the rotation on the X axis. Actually, you can use it for any armature containing thoses bones. Additional trick : the armature must have a custom properties 'Car Rig' to 1 to make the RigCar panel appeared.
