Abstract

See full text

In a VTOL or STOL aircraft in which a lift device is housed internally within the aircraft fuselage or wing an outlet nozzle is stowable within the lift device exit aperture. A pair of doors, which when closed conceal the aperture from the sides of the nozzle, and a third folding member form the forward side of the nozzle and support a frame carrying variable vanes which vector the lift thrust.
