PROTECTION DEVICE FOR THE AIR INLET OF AIRCRAFT TURBINES
The present invention relates to an aircraft engine (2) which on its front is provided with an air inlet through which the air flows into the engine during use, the engine comprising a device (4) for protecting the air inlet, in which engine the device comprises elements (4) which can move between a first, inactive position, in which the air inlet is substantially open, and a second, active position, in which the elements form the protection in front of the inlet opening. Furthermore, it is possible for the elements to be attached at one end to a positioning device which can move the elements between the active and inactive positions.
