Abstract: Landing gear comprising a pivoting strut (1) receiving the rod of a shock absorber (2) which projects downwardly from the strut and is movable in an axial direction (3) relative thereto, a rocking beam (4) mounted to tilt at the bottom end of the shock absorber rod (2) and supporting leading and trailing wheel sets (6), a torque linkage comprising a top branch (7) and a bottom branch (8) which are hinged to each other, the top branch (7) being hinged to the strut (1) and the bottom branch (8) being hinged to the rocking beam, and locking means (9, 15) for limiting a downwards pivot movement of the top branch (7) of the torque linkage while the shock absorber rod (2) is not fully extended.
