Abstract
A thrust reverser system with a thrust reverser cascade and a reverser door with door segments laid out in a folded condition relatively to each other in an inactive configuration of the reverser system, and accommodated in an accommodation space located outside the secondary channel. Upon passing from the inactive configuration to the active configuration a rearward displacement of the cascade towards a nacelle aperture, released by an external movable nacelle cowl driven rearwards by the cascade, and a deployment of segments until they attain a deployed closing position within the secondary channel occurs simultaneously.
