Abstract

See full text

A thrust reverser nozzle for a gas turbine engine nacelle includes opposite and asymmetrically pivoting first and second doors defining a nacelle aft section, first and second trailing edges of the first and second doors adjacent to a propulsive jet nozzle outlet of the nacelle, the doors being pivotable simultaneously between a stowed position and a deployed position such that the first trailing edge is positioned behind the second trailing edge when the doors are in the deployed position, and the first and second fairings attached to the first and second doors in relative fixed positions to the first and second doors respectively. Male contour middle portions of the first fairings may complementarily match female contour middle portions of the second fairings and are received within the female contour middle portion when the doors are in the stowed position. The fairings may be removably attached to the doors.
