Abstract
A cascade assembly of a nacelle for a turbofan engine includes a one-piece cascade fixed to a translating sleeve constructed and arranged to move between forward and aft positions along a centerline. A hook device of the cascade assembly includes a first catch fixed to a stationary structure and a second catch fixed to the one-piece cascade. The first catch is adapted to mate with the second catch for translating load when the cascade assembly is in a deployed state and the translating sleeve is in the aft position.
