Abstract
A gas turbine engine includes first and second structures secured to one another at a bolted flange joint. A seal is supported by a third structure. A cover is arranged over the bolted flange joint and discrete from the first and second structures. The cover provides a seal land that engages the piston seal and protects the first structure from the adverse thermal environment.
