A turbofan exhaust nozzle includes a fan duct defined between a fan nacelle and core engine cowling. The duct includes an arcuate outlet at the trailing edge of the nacelle. A movable flap is disposed in a minor portion of the fan duct, with a remaining major portion of the fan duct having a constant flow area. The flap may be moved between stowed and deployed positions to locally decrease flow area inside the duct for noise attenuation.
