ABSTRACT:
A vectorable nozzle (17) comprises a fixed first duct (21), a rotatable second duct (22) scarfed at its downstream end, and a rotatable third duct (23) scarfed at its upstream end. The second and third ducts (22, 23) are mounted in bearings (24,26), respectively, and an epicyclic gear train (30) is provided to rotate them in opposite directions while maintaining the direction of gas efflux issuing from the nozzle (17) in a single plane.
