The turbine engine including a fan comprising a plurality of fan blades that rotate about the longitudinal centerline axis and a rotational component coupled to the fan. The turbine engine including a fluid circuit for supplying fuel or lubricant to the turbine engine and a hydraulic fan brake coupled to the fluid circuit to prevent rotation of the rotational component, thus preventing rotation of the fan. The hydraulic fan brake including a hydraulic cylinder fluidly coupled to the fluid circuit and a valve coupled to the hydraulic cylinder and having a first valve position that disengages the hydraulic fan brake to allow rotation of the rotational component and a second valve position that engages the hydraulic fan brake to prevent rotation of the rotational component.
