ABSTRACT:
A nose landing gear supported deflector for preventing ingestion of nose wheel side spray into wing-mounted engines. The deflector extends horizontally with respect to the runway surface and in front of the nose wheels while permitting landing gear and deflector retraction into the nose gear wheel well through the nose gear doorway. A four-point deflector attachment method permits nose wheel and tire changes without requiring removal of the entire deflector assembly.
