Abstract

A support structure (30) is provided for attaching a gas turbine engine to a pylon (32). The gas turbine engine has an engine casing (34) surrounding an engine core, and the pylon has first (40) and second (44) attachment positions, the second attachment position being forward of the first attachment position relative to the working gas flow direction (41) through the engine. The support structure has three elongate members (38) joined to form a triangular frame (36) encircling the engine casing. A first vertex of the triangular frame attaches to the pylon via a first attachment arrangement at the first attachment position. Two thrust struts (42) respectively extend from the other two vertices of the triangular frame and attach to the pylon via a second attachment arrangement at the second attachment position. Three engine connection formations (52) extend from the respective vertices of the triangular frame to positions on the engine casing to connect the support structure to the engine casing.
