Abstract
An aircraft landing gear () is described including a noise-reducing element that includes an air-deflecting surface, in the form of a fairing (), and a perforated airflow-reducing region (). In use, some air passes through the perforations, whilst other air is deflected by the fairing away from a noise-generating region of the landing gear. Noise caused by the passing of the landing gear through the air is therefore reduced.
