<p>A fail-safe lug (116) is carried by an engine frame member (42) and receives a clevis (106, 108) carried by an engine mount member (64). The mount member (64) includes side links (70, 72) that transmit transverse loads between the engine and the airframe and a thrust link (46) that transmits axial, engine thrust loads between the engine and the airframe. A fail-safe pin (114) is carried by the clevis (106, 108) and has an outer diameter that is smaller than an aperture (130) in the lug (116) and through which the pin (114) passes, so that no loads are imposed on the fail-safe, pin (114) in normal operation. When one or more of the links (70, 72) are no longer capable of transmitting loads, the fail-safe arrangement becomes operative to accommodate the loads transmitted between the engine and the airframe.
