1. A landing gear for an aircraft, the landing gear having a longitudinally-extending load-bearing first skid and a longitudinally-extending load-bearing second skid together with a cross-member referred to as a “front” cross-member and a cross-member referred to as a “rear” cross-member, each cross-member connecting the first skid to the second skid, each cross-member having a first downwardly-directed branch secured to the first skid, and a second downwardly-directed branch secured to the second skid;
wherein the landing gear includes at least one stiffener arranged on a cross-member, said stiffener comprising in succession in a transverse direction: a first rocker extending from an outer first end portion secured to the cross-member and going towards an inner first end portion that is free; a second rocker extending from an inner second end portion that is free towards an outer second end portion secured to said cross-member; first hinge means for hinging the first rocker to a carrier structure of an aircraft, and second hinge means for hinging the second rocker to said carrier structure; and an elongate link member extending from a first link end hinged to said inner first end portion of the first rocker to a second link end hinged to said inner second end portion of the second rocker.
