A dual load path assembly includes an outer pin, which has an axial through bore and at least one end that includes a threaded section. The threaded section includes at least one slot orientated from the end and extends axially along at least part of the threaded section. The assembly also includes an inner pin, which is receivable in the through bore of the outer fastener. A female fastener comprising at least one notch is receivable on the threaded end of the outer pin. A locking plate comprises a through hole via which it is receivable on the shank of the inner pin and at least one projection. The locking plate is arranged such that the projection is receivable in both the notch and the slot. A locking member engages with the end of the inner pin and abuts a face of the locking plate thereby sandwiching the locking plate between the locking member and the female fastener.
