Zusammenfassung:An aircraft landing gear ( 1 ) is described including a noise-reducing element that includes an air-deflecting surface, in the form of a fairing ( 4 ), and a perforated airflow-reducing region ( 8 ). 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.
