Abstract

A thrust reverser (36) includes reverser doors (54) circumferentially spaced around a nacelle (16). An arcuate yoke (78) is disposed coaxially around the nacelle (16). An actuator (80) is mounted tangentially to the yoke (78) for rotary movement thereof. Actuator rods (82) join the doors (54) to the yoke (78) for simultaneous deployment of the doors (54) as the yoke (78) is rotated.
