Methods of moving an aircraft undercarriage that is movable between a retracted position and a deployed position generally include: using a rotary electromechanical type drive actuator coupled to a portion of the aircraft undercarriage to raise it from the deployed position to the retracted position; disengaging the drive actuator during a descent of the undercarriage from the retracted position to the deployed position and using a hydraulic linear shock absorber coupled to a portion of the undercarriage to regulate the rate of descent and to absorb shock on arrival of the undercarriage in the deployed position; and neutralizing the shock absorber while raising the undercarriage.
