Abstract
An attachment assembly for an aircraft strut mounting joint. The attachment assembly includes a tubular structure having a central axis and at least one open end. The attachment assembly further includes at least one mounting pin arranged at least partially within the at least one open end of the tubular structure and moveable along the central axis between a retracted position and an extended position. In the extended position, a portion of the at least one mounting pin protrudes for engagement with a lug and in the retracted position the at least one mounting pin is withdrawn for disengagement with the lug. The attachment assembly further includes a retraction mechanism arranged to convert a rotary input motion into linear motion of the at least one mounting pin along the central axis to drive the at least one mounting pin between the extended position and the retracted position.
