Abstract

A thrust reverser assembly for a turbine engine can include a core engine surrounded by a nacelle. A bypass duct can be formed in the space between the core engine and the nacelle. A blocker door can be movable to a deployed position extending into the bypass duct. A stop can be provided on the core engine to abut and support force applied to the deployed blocker door. The stop can have an airfoil shape.
