ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a simplified, lightweight, easily stowed thrust control device for the hot core exhaust flow of a jet engine. The device is mounted in the engine strut fairing, downstream of the nozzle exit plane to reduce exposure to the high exhaust temperatures. In a blocking position, the mounting hardware, actuator and actuator linkage is located so as to be cooled by both free stream and fan air, providing a longer operating life, less maintenance and more reliable operation. Simplified construction and mounting arrangement permit the device to be readily retrofitted on existing installations.
