A landing gear bay including a bottom wall which includes longitudinal beams and at least one panel forming an airtight barrier between first and second zones disposed on either side of the panel. The panel has first and second longitudinal edges each linked to one of the longitudinal beams. The second zone is configured to sustain a pressure greater than that of the first zone. The panel has a profile that is substantially constant in the longitudinal direction and includes at least one central part offset toward the second zone with respect to its first and second longitudinal edges. This solution makes it possible to limit the vertical stresses applied to the longitudinal beams by virtue of the pressure difference between the first and second zones.
