This paper deals with results of noise measurements for a 40% of two-wheel type aircraft main landing gear in lowspeed wind tunnel experiments. In order to accurately assess a noise source location and far-field characteristics during the approach phase, scale model with complex geometry which was equipped with small components such as link mechanism, hydraulic tubes and electrical wiring as well as a tire, a cylinder, a piston, doors, and a sidebrace was used. Model geometry was based on LEG (Landing gear noise Evaluation Geometry) which was designed by a gear manufacturer assuming 100-PAX class regional jet airliner. Experimental results obtained in two kinds of wind tunnels, which were 2m by 2m lowspeed wind tunnel in JAXA and large scale anechoic facility of Railway Technical Research Institute of Japan, showed dominant noise sources around a tire, a sidebrace, some parts of the door and also the junction between the cylinder and the sidebrace. Among these prominent noise sources, the tire and the sidebrace were large contributor to the total of noise level. It was found that noise characteristics around 1kHz was important not only in the amplitude but also in directivity for an actual aircraft scale. Representation of small components and geometry of an actual landing gear even in a scale model seemed to be effective of several decibels in noise level.
