Abstract
A lipskin for a nacelle includes a generally annular first lipskin segment that extends generally upstream from a first lipskin edge to a forward edge. The forward edge is proximate to a hilite of the nacelle. The lipskin also includes a generally annular second lipskin segment that extends generally downstream from the forward edge to a second lipskin edge. The second lipskin segment is oriented generally concentrically about the first lipskin segment. The first lipskin segment and the second lipskin segment are coupled together at the forward edge.
