The bleed valve actuating system is for use in a gas turbine engine. The system comprises an actuator mounted adjacent the engine case and having a main actuation axis extending generally parallel to a surface of the engine case. A drive rod extends from the bleed valve to the actuator generally perpendicularly with reference to the main actuation axis of the actuator. The drive rod connected to the actuator via a linkage mechanically connects the actuator to the drive rod. The linkage is configured to convert axial motion of the actuator along the main actuation axis into generally perpendicular motion of the drive rod.
