Abstract

A bleed of valve comprises a ring axially translatable between a retracted position in which the ring is configured to close an annular bleed off opening defined in a converging portion of a radially outer annular wall of a gas turbine engine gaspath and a deployed position in which the ring protrudes into the gaspath to mechanically scoop out incoming air and water/hail particles.
