Abstract: A gas turbine is provided for an aircraft comprising an engine core and a core flow path, a fan, a front drum cavity arranged radially inward of the core flow path, and a front bearing chamber. The front drum cavity comprises a front drum inlet, for providing air to the front drum cavity from the core air flow, located downstream of a stage of the compressor, and a front drum outlet, for ejecting air from the front drum cavity to the fan air flow, located axially between the fan and the compressor. The front drum inlet is through a seal, and the front drum outlet is through a spaced gap.
