ABSTRACT:
A fan turbine engine arrangement is provided in which a core engine is aligned such that an input of a nacelle is aligned with the upwash of a wing to which the arrangement is secured. The engine drives a fan such that bypass flows produced by the fan are guided by a duct to present a downward component for uplift. The core engine presents its output flow through a nozzle which is aligned with the fundamental axis Y—Y of the engine. In such circumstances, the bypass flows cross the core engine flow from the nozzle unless that engine is adjustable during operation in order to maintain alignment dependent upon lift requirements.
