Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture for mounting a gas turbine engine are described. An apparatus for mounting a gas turbine engine to a pylon, the gas turbine including an upstream section and a downstream section, the gas turbine defining a roll axis, a yaw axis, and a pitch axis, the apparatus including: a first mount to couple the upstream section of the gas turbine engine to the pylon; a second mount to couple the upstream section of the gas turbine engine to the pylon, the second mount downstream of the first mount; a thrust linkage to couple the upstream section to the pylon, wherein the downstream section is decouplable from the upstream section without decoupling the first mount, the second mount, and the thrust linkage.

Methods and apparatus for mounting a gas turbine engine

Bypass turbine engine, comprising a gas generator surrounded by a nacelle and connected to the latter by tubular arms, a primary flow duct within the gas generator being externally delimited by a first annular casing of the gas generator, and a bypass flow duct of a secondary flow around the gas generator being internally delimited by a second annular casing of the gas generator and externally by a third annular casing of the nacelle, the second and third casings being connected together by at least some of the tubular arms, characterized in that it comprises at least one lubricant tank located in the annular space that extends between the first and second casings, and lubricant supply means of the tank or of each tank that comprise at least one supply line extending from the or each tank to at least one filler opening located at the level of the third casing, passing within at least one of said arms connecting the second and third casings.
