Abstract
A nacelle may include a tertiary lock for a thrust reverser. The tertiary lock may comprise a locking face which prevents the thrust reverser from accidentally deploying. An actuator may be coupled to a track beam. The actuator may contact a left tertiary lock and a right tertiary lock to disengage the locks. The locks may rotate and allow the thrust reverser to deploy. A spring may bias the locks to engage when the thrust reverser returns to the stowed position.
