Abstract
The invention provides a method of moving an aircraft undercarriage comprising a leg () that is movable between a deployed position and a retracted position in which the leg is held stationary by means of a strut () held in an aligned position by a stabilizer member (), the method including using a drive actuator () for raising the undercarriage from the deployed position to the retracted position. According to the invention, the actuator is coupled firstly to the leg and secondly to the stabilizer member in such a manner that on being activated the actuator begins by causing the stabilizer member to unlock and then moves the undercarriage leg towards the retracted position.
