| abstract |
A nacelle (30) for an engine has outer and inner cowl doors (16a, 18a) that are independently rotatable about offset hinge lines (24a, 32a). A connection device (40) is provided for selectively connecting the outer and inner cowl doors (16a, 18a) so as to cause them to open simultaneously. The inner cowl door (18a) is arranged to rotate by a greater angle than the outer cowl door (24a) so as to improve access to the engine for maintenance purposes. |
