# Aircraft landing gear assembly

## Abstract

An aircraft landing gear assembly 1 includes a wheel 10 , a disc brake 20 comprising one or more discs 21, 22 and a filter 30 . The disc brake is operable to inhibit rotation of wheel 10 during a braking event thereby resulting in the formation of brake dust from the one or more discs 21, 22 . The filter 30 is positioned relative to the disc brake 20 such that air flows over the one or more discs 21,22 , through the filter 30 and away from the assembly 1 , wherein the filter 30 is configured to separate and remove at least part of the brake dust from the air and while allowing the air to pass.
