Abstract

A gas turbine engine assembly has a pylon with a first side and a second side. A first rail is mounted to the first side and a second rail is mounted to the second side. The assembly also has a thrust reverser with a first door assembly with a first upper portion and a first lower portion, and a second door assembly with a second upper portion and a second lower portion. A plurality of fasteners is part of the assembly. The first upper portion is connected with at least one of the plurality of fasteners to the first rail, and the second upper portion is connected with at least one of the plurality of fasteners to the second rail such that the thrust reverser is positionable between an engaged position and a disengaged position.
