A landing gear of an aircraft includes a pair of wheels between which an electric actuator at least partially covered with a lightning arrester cowl is placed. The lightning arrester cowl has an insulating matrix onto which at least an electrical conductor is attached. The electrical conductor includes electrical connection means for connecting the electrical conductor to a ground conductor of the aircraft.
A landing gear of an aircraft having an upper portion intended to be joined to a structure of the aircraft and a lower portion provided with a first and second axle, the first axle being provided with a braked wheel and the second axle being provided with a motorised wheel, includes a first actuator that moves one of the axles between remote and close positions with respect to the upper portion while the other axle is kept stationary with respect to the upper portion. In one of the remote and close positions, and the wheels on the axles are simultaneously in contact with a running surface while, in the other position, each wheel on the second axle is at a distance from said running surface.

An aircraft landing gear includes: a strut assembly hinged by its upper end to a structure element of the aircraft to pivot between deployed and retracted states; an interlocking system having a stay including an arm hinged to the strut assembly via a lifting pin carried by two lugs of a clevis of the strut assembly, this arm being terminated by a head through which the pin passes and which is located between the lugs; and a lifting jack having one end connected to a first end of the pin which is located outside the clevis, a first end stop carried by the pin at its first end beyond the jack, and a second end stop carried by the pin at its second end. The landing gear includes a system for translationally locking the lifting pin in the event of the pin breaking between its first end and the clevis.
An aircraft undercarriage includes an upper element for connecting to an aircraft structure and a lower element carrying an axle. The lower element is mounted to be movable in translation relative to the upper element along a longitudinal axis, and a shock absorber is arranged to damp movements in translation of the lower element relative to the upper element.
