Abstract
An engine pod for a gas turbine engine which includes a pod wall having an inside and an outside. The pod wall includes a fixed downstream portion and a displaceable upstream portion which is displaceable in the axial direction between a first upstream position and a second downstream position. At its downstream end facing the fixed portion, the upstream portion forms a radially outer rear edge and axially spaced therefrom a radially inner rear edge, with a recess in between. It is provided that adjacent to the recess, an air-permeable structure is formed in the upstream portion which is intended and configured, in the first upstream position of the displaceable portion, to conduct air flowing in the region of the recess to the inside of the displaceable portion. According to a further aspect of the invention, the axial position of the radially inner rear edge varies in the circumferential direction.
