Abstract: A jet pipe liner for a gas turbine engine comprises of an inner skin consisting of a multiplicity of longitudinally extending sections arranged edge-to-edge in a circumferential direction and suspended along their edges by a multiplicity of longitudinally extending A-frame members. The supporting members are attached to the inside of the jet pipe and the inner skin sections are clamped along their long edges by double-skinned distal ends of the links of the A-frame members.

Abstract: In a mounting for a gas turbine engine, the engine is pivotally mounted about its center of gravity to an aircraft support structure by means of a pair of radially outwardly extending trunnions. Each trunnion is connected to a central conical section of engine casing by means of an axially extending intermediate support member. The support member is secured to the downstream end of the conical casing section at an axial location offset from the trunnion. During operation distortion of the less stiff conical section is reduced by virtue of the resultant shear force distribution across the casing.
