Abstract: A thrust reverser system for a gas turbine engine includes a support structure, a transcowl, and an actuator. The transcowl is mounted on the support structure and is axially translatable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The actuator is coupled to the transcowl and the support structure, and is configured to supply an actuation force to the transcowl to thereby move the transcowl between the stowed and deployed positions. The actuator includes an actuator housing, a screw, a nut, a rod end, and a tension rod. The tension rod is engaged by the nut when the transcowl is in the deployed position and is engaged by the rod end when the transcowl is in the stowed position, whereby actuator loads, in both the deployed and stowed positions, are transmitted through the tension rod to the support structure.

Abstract: A component mounting assembly includes a non-metallic frame, a nut plate, and a grounding strap. The non-metallic frame is adapted for mounting to an aircraft fuselage. The non-metallic frame includes an outer peripheral portion having one or more fastener openings formed therein, and extends to a first height above the outer peripheral portion. The nut plate is coupled to the outer peripheral portion and extends therefrom to a second height that is at least 50% of the first height. The grounding strap is coupled, via a threaded fastener, to the nut plate.
