ABSTRACT:
A thrust reverser is disclosed for an aircraft jet engine having a cowling with an outer surface and at least one reverse thrust opening, the thrust reverser including a thrust reverser door assembly movable with respect to the cowling between a forward thrust position, in which the reverse thrust opening is uncovered, and a reverse thrust position in which the thrust reverser door uncovers the reverse thrust opening. The thrust reverser door assembly includes an inner structure, an external panel movably connected to the inner structure and one or more resilient devices acting on the inner structure and the external panel to bias the external panel toward the inner structure such that, when the thrust reverser door is in the forward thrust position the external panel is displaced away from the inner structure by contact with the cowling such that an outer surface of the external panel is substantially flush with the outer surface of the cowling.
