ABSTRACT:
A casing assembly for a ducted fan gas turbine engine comprises a casing around which extend two annular, axially spaced apart, frangible rails. Pieces of cloth woven from an aromatic polyamide fibre are positioned on the casing radially outer surface between the rails. Continuous layers of the cloth are wound around the casing radially outwardly of the rails and cloth pieces. The arrangement provided enhanced containment of any fan blades of the engine which may become detached from the gas turbine engine which carries the casing assembly.
