The forward brace first end is pivotably coupled to the nose gear bay of a high wing aircraft about a first pivot axis. The assembly also includes an aft brace including an aft brace first end and an aft brace second end. The aft brace first end is pivotably coupled to the nose gear bay about a second pivot axis, and the aft brace second end is pivotably coupled to the oleo strut. An actuator includes an actuator first end and an actuator second end. The actuator second end is coupled to the nose gear bay and the actuator first end coupled to the forward brace. The actuator is configured to move the nose landing gear assembly between a retracted position and an extended position.
