According to one embodiment, an apparatus for cooling at least one landing gear brake (42) of an aircraft in flight is described. The apparatus includes an air handling assembly (120) that is coupled to the aircraft. The air handling assembly (120) includes at least one air inlet port (124). The apparatus also includes an air delivery assembly (150) that is in air receiving communication with the air handling assembly (120). The air delivery assembly (150) includes at least one nozzle (152) that is configured to direct air into a first space adjacent a first side of the landing gear brake (42) to create an air pressure differential across the landing gear brake (42).
