Abstract: An aircraft landing gear 100 includes a structural main leg 110, having a substantially circular cross-section and defining a front side for facing upstream in use and a rear side for facing downstream in use. The landing gear includes a shaped element 151 attached to an attachment point located on the rear side of the structural main leg. The shaped element extends rearwards from the structural main leg to provide a combined cross-sectional shape of the structural main leg and shaped element that is elongated in the upstream-downstream direction compared to the structural main leg.

Abstract: An aircraft landing gear bay door 140 including an attachment mechanism suitable for pivotally mounting the door to an aircraft, a first side 141 arranged to face inwardly in relation to the aircraft landing gear bay when the door is closed and face towards one side of a main leg of the landing gear when the door is open and the landing gear is deployed, and a second opposite side 142. The shape formed from the first and second sides provides an aerofoil profile of the door. The invention also provides an aircraft landing gear arrangement 100, an aircraft 1000, methods of operating an aircraft and a method of reducing noise.
