ABSTRACT:
A breather outlet for the gearbox of an aircraft mounted gas turbine engine comprises an aerodynamic mast which extends from the engine nacelle. The mast contains a breather duct which interconnects the interior of the gearbox with an exhaust outlet. The exhaust outlet is generally rearwardly facing and is spaced apart from the engine nacelle so as to avoid oil staining of the nacelle.
