Abstract: This invention relates to a method of moving a set of adjustable trailing vanes in a gas turbine engine of the "split-shaft" type. The vanes are moved by an adjusting ring which is made to completely encircle the casing of the turbine and connect to each vane by means of a rotator assembly. Provision is made to allow for connection of the turbine casing so that the binding or flexing of the adjustor ring assembly during thermal cycling is avoided. A series of pitman arms are pivotally interconnected between the adjustor ring assembly and each vane rotator assembly. The vane rotator assembly is provided to intercouple the adjustor ring assembly to each pivoting vane while at the same time providing some radial flexibility for the vane itself to prevent binding of the blade and actuator during thermal cycling. Provision is also made to bias each pivoting vane in the particular direction in the turbine during the operation of the turbine.
