<p>An air intake for a helicopter mounted gas turbine engine comprises two intake portions which comprises vortex separator panels. One panel is generally forward facing while the other is generally sideways facing. A panel is pivotally mounted between the separator panels so as to pivot between a first position in which it obturates the generally sideways facing panel and a second position in which it obturates neither of the separator panels. The arrangement is such that when the helicopter is in fast forward flight, the pressure of the ram air flow through the generally forward facing inlet panel causes the pivoted panel to pivot to the position in which it obturates the generally sideways facing inlet panel.</p> |
