ENGINE MOUNT

摘要

A mounting system is arranged in use for attaching a gas turbine engine to a pylon of an aircraft. The mounting system comprises a first frame of three elongate members arranged in a triangle. The first frame is arranged in use such that a core of the gas turbine engine is positioned extending through the area defined between the three elongate members. The first frame forms at least part of a load bearing connection between the pylon and gas turbine engine. The first frame consists of two portions, one corresponding to each side of the gas turbine engine when attached to the pylon. The triangle is symmetrical about a plane separating the two portions of the first frame.
