The nacelle further includes at least one pair of mobile cowlings (3) provided on both sides of a vertical longitudinal symmetry plane of the nacelle and hinged essentially parallel to a longitudinal axis (A) of the nacelle so they can be opened to provide access to the jet engine (1). The mobile cowlings (3) are paired by fastening means (8) so that they can be hinged on each other about separate or overlapping axes (6). Each mobile cowling (3) comprises permanent connection means or means (14, 15) for connecting it temporarily by rotation and in closed position to a fixed structure (7) of the nacelle.
