Abstract
An aircraft nacelle in which a power plant is arranged delimits a duct for a flow which assists the thrust. The nacelle includes a device for reducing, canceling, or reversing the thrust that includes at least one flap that can have an active position in which it deflects—in the direction of a radial opening—at least a portion of the flow and an at-rest position in which the flap does not interfere with the flow, whereby the wall of the nacelle delimiting the duct includes at least one moving part that can occupy a first position in which it is interposed between the flow to be deflected and the flap and another position in which it releases the flap so as to allow the flap to change position and to move from the at-rest position to the active position.
