Aircraft landing gears include at least one wheel, an electric taxiing system including an electric taxiing motor, brakes capable of slowing down or stopping the rotation of the wheel, and a cooling system for cooling the electric taxiing motor and the brakes. The cooling system includes ventilation means capable of mixing a first air flow originating from the brakes and a second air flow originating from outside the landing gear and of ventilating the electric taxiing motor with a mixture of the two air flows.
