Abstract: Plated polymeric gas turbine engine parts and methods for fabricating lightweight plated polymeric gas turbine engine parts are disclosed. The parts include a polymeric substrate plated with one or more metal layers. The polymeric material of the polymeric substrate may be structurally reinforced with materials that may include carbon, metal, or glass. The polymeric substrate may also include a plurality of layers to form a composite layup structure.

Abstract: An accessory gearbox mounting assembly includes a gearbox bracket engaged to a case bracket mounted on an engine case. The case bracket includes a first boss receivable within a first cavity of the engine case and a locator opening through the first boss. The gearbox bracket is mountable to a gearbox case and includes a pin receivable within the locator opening for transferring load from the gearbox bracket to the case bracket.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a combustor, a first turbine section in fluid communication with the combustor, a second turbine section in fluid communication with the first turbine section, and a mid-turbine frame located axially between the first turbine section and the second turbine section. An oil system includes a first oil system component that houses oil. A first connector mechanically connects the first oil system component to the mid-turbine frame.
