A landing gear assembly includes a control system configured to output an amount of operation corresponding to an operated physical amount; a wheel; a landing gear supported by a frame of the aircraft, and configured to rotatably support the wheel; a steering system configured to steer the wheel using the amount of operation as a command value; and a detection sensor configured not to output a detection signal when the aircraft flies in air, and to output the detection signal when the aircraft stays on ground. When the detection sensor does not output the detection signal, or when speed of the aircraft is higher than first limitation speed, the steering system orients rotation of the wheel in a longitudinal direction of the aircraft in disregard of the amount of operation.
