Abstract
A fan variable area nozzle (FVAN) includes a flap assembly which varies a fan nozzle exit area. The flap assembly generally includes a multiple of flaps, flap linkages and an actuator system. The actuator system radially and axially translates a drive ring relative an engine centerline axis. A slot within the drive ring receives the flap linkages to asymmetrically and symmetrically vary the fan nozzle exit area in response to movement of the drive ring.
