Aspects of the disclosure regard an exhaust nozzle of a gas turbine engine which includes an outer nozzle wall, a flow channel, a centerbody arranged in the flow channel, at least two struts connecting the centerbody to the nozzle wall, a thrust reverser unit, and a plurality of actuators, wherein each actuator is associated with a strut for displacing the strut in the axial direction. The struts are connected to a structure of the outer nozzle wall that forms part of the thrust reverser unit. For allowing axial relative movement between the struts and the outer nozzle wall, each strut includes a sliding element extending radially from the radial outer end of the strut, wherein the sliding element is arranged in a receiving slot that extends in the axial direction in the nozzle wall. It is provided that the sliding element comprises an interaction structure that interacts with one of the actuators for effecting relative axial movement between the strut and the nozzle wall.

A nacelle is configured to be coupled to an underside of a wing and forms a clearance space between the nacelle and a leading edge slat of the wing. A portion of an outlet cowling moves longitudinally aft when a reverse thrust configuration is activated and the leading edge slat is deployed toward the nacelle. The outlet cowling also includes another portion located adjacent to the leading edge slat that does not move when the reverse thrust configuration is activated and thus maintains its clearance space from the leading edge slat.

A thrust reverser cascade can include a peripheral frame having at least one side. At least one plate can be mounted to the at least one side and have a plurality of spaced grooves. In addition, a plurality of vanes can include corresponding terminal ends positioned in the plurality of spaced grooves.

A thrust reverser is disclosed. The thrust reverser includes a frame, a first reverser door pivotally mounted to the frame, a second reverser door pivotally mounted to the frame and a hybrid exhaust duct. A first trailing edge of the first reverser door forms a portion of an exit plane of the thrust reverser and a second trailing edge of the second reverser door merges into the hybrid exhaust duct.

A rack for holding a portion of a thrust reverser. The rack may include a base and a supporting frame disposed perpendicularly with the base. The base and the supporting frame may include a hinge at each location where the base and the supporting frame are coupled together. The rack may also include two supporting poles parallel to the supporting frame. The two supporting poles may be designed such that the portion of the thrust reverser may be mounted onto the two supporting poles.
