ABSTRACT:
A failure tolerant engine mounting is formed by three links between the engine and its support structure, one of the links being arranged so that in the event of failure of either of the other links it will form a connection between three points on the engine and supporting structure which are symmetrically arranged about a vertical axis through the engines center of gravity.
