An aircraft landing gear door assembly has a plurality of doors. The doors
include a first door (1) mounted for rotational movement between closed
and open positions about a first generally longitudinal axis (11) and a
transverse door (3) mounted for rotational movement between closed and
open positions about a generally horizontal axis (13) that is transverse
to the longitudinal axis (11). The provision of the transverse door (3)
can allow the length of the first door (1) to be reduced from that which
would otherwise be required to allow passage of the landing gear.
