Abstract

See full text

A nacelle and mounting arrangement for a high bypass ratio ducted fan aircraft engine mounted external to the aircraft main structure is disclosed. The nacelle and mounting arrangement isolate the engine from the adverse effects of certain aerodynamic forces acting on the nacelle by transferring substantially all of those forces directly from the nacelle to the aircraft and transferring substantially none of those forces to the engine. Various arrangements of the nacelle components which facilitate engine removal while avoiding the placement of nacelle component interfaces in highly stressed regions of the nacelle are also disclosed.
