The present subject matter can be embodied in, among other things, a two-speed thrust reverser actuation system for actuating a thrust reverser element experiencing an assisting load during movement between a stowed and deployed positions. The system includes a hydraulic actuator to move the thrust reverser element between the stowed and deployed positions, and a directional control valve with a regeneration feature including a restrictor and a velocity fuse arranged in parallel with the restrictor. The velocity fuse is configured to close when the assisting load on the thrust reverser element increases the flow rate of hydraulic fluid through the velocity fuse above threshold value. In operation, the system defines a first movement speed when the velocity fuse is open, and a second movement speed when the velocity fuse is closed, thereby decreasing an effective exit orifice size of the hydraulic actuator when the assisting load increases the deploy rate.

An exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a duct having a first surface and a second surface extending about a duct axis to define an exhaust flow path, and at least one effector positioned along the first surface. The at least one effector is pivotable about an effector axis to vary a throat area of the exhaust flow path. The at least one effector tapers along the effector axis. A method of exhaust control for a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

A propulsion unit for an aircraft is provided. The propulsion unit includes a stationary unit having at least one cowl pivotally mounted on an axis collinear with a longitudinal axis of the propulsion unit between an operating position or a maintenance position allowing access to the turbojet engine for regular maintenance operations and irregular maintenance operations. The maintenance position for irregular maintenance operations includes an opening angle of the cowl that is greater than the opening angle of the cowl to carry out regular maintenance operations. The propulsion unit further includes at least one cylinder and at least one safety connecting rod secured to the cowl and stationary unit.

A thrust reverser of a nacelle of a turbojet engine of an aircraft extending about a longitudinal axis and including a fixed structure and at least one door which is rotatable between a closed position and an open position and including a downstream frame spaced axially from a downstream end edge of the door by an axial clearance parallel to the longitudinal axis. The thrust reverser includes a system for diverting fluids to the exterior including at least one projection fixed onto the door or the other fixed structure and extending into the axial clearance and towards one of the fixed structure or the door, while leaving an axial gap between a free end of said projection and one of the fixed structure or the door.

A multi-surface blocker door system for a thrust reverser of an aircraft is provided. The system may comprise one or more first blocker doors coupled to the inner fixed structure. The first blocker doors may be configured to obstruct a fan duct area adjacent the engine. The system may also comprise one or more second blocker doors coupled to a translating sleeve. The second blocker doors may be configured to obstruct a fan duct area adjacent to an inlet of the nacelle.
