Abstract: In one aspect, a spinner fairing includes a base configured to be fixed relative to a hub system; a movable spinner assembly movable relative to the base; the movable spinner assembly comprising a first movable member and a second movable member. Each first and second movable member being selectively configurable between a closed position and a contracted position, in which the movable spinner assembly has a decreased shape and/or volume. In another embodiment, a spinner fairing can include at least one static member and a moveable member. In still another embodiment, a rotor head fairing assembly includes an upper housing and a lower housing coupled to a hub system; the upper housing including an upper movable member; the lower housing comprising a lower movable member. In yet another embodiment, a rotor head fairing includes at least one moveable upper housing and lower housing.
