[...] Les premiers amortisseurs furent mécaniques puis en les améliorant, ce furent les amortisseurs oléo-mécaniques, actuellement les plus employés sont les amortisseurs oléo-pneumatiques, les amortisseurs hydrauliques purs n'étant réservés qu'aux avions de très gros tonnage. 5, record 16, French, - jambe%20%C3%A0%20amortisseur%20ol%C3%A9opneumatique
