ABSTRACT:
A ducted fan gas turbine engine is provided with a thrust reverser which comprises doors which deflect the fan exchaust efflux. Each door is pivotably attached at its downstream end to a common support member by a frangible coupling. In the event of an unintended in-flight deployment of the thrust reverser, the frangible couplings fracture to permit the doors to move to a non-thrust deflecting position.
