Abstract
A door for a thrust reverser of a propulsion assembly, the door being provided with a flexible baffle. The baffle is configured to change state by moving from a folded position to an unfolded position, and vice versa, depending on the configuration of the reverser. When the reverser is in reverse jet configuration, the door is open and the baffle is in an unfolded position in order to direct a flow of gas upstream of the propulsion assembly, thus generating a counter-thrust. When the reverser is in direct jet configuration, the door is closed and the baffle is in a folded position so as to cancel or minimise interference caused by the baffle in the flow of gas passing through the propulsion assembly and thus generating a thrust.
