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: The present application relates to a control surface for an aircraft. The control surface has a leading edge, a trailing edge, and a chord-line defined between the leading edge and the trailing edge. A first aerodynamic surface is between the leading and trailing edges and a second surface is between the leading and trailing edges. The leading edge is formed by a nose, the nose having a hinge axis about which the control surface is deflectable. A maximum thickness of the control surface perpendicular to the chord-line between the first aerodynamic surface and the second surface is located aft of the hinge axis. The present application also relates to a control surface for an aircraft having a maximum curvature of the first aerodynamic surface of the control surface located aft of the hinge axis. The present application also relates to an aircraft or part of an aircraft comprising a fixed section and a control surface.

Abstract: A natural-laminar-flow swept transonic wing fitted with a wing tip pod for controlling the location of a wing shock in the wing tip region, such that the shock extends outboard substantially up to the wing tip without substantially sweeping forward toward the wing tip leading edge.
