Abstract
An assembly for an aircraft propulsion system is provided, the assembly having an axial centerline. The assembly comprises a fixed structure, a first thrust reverser door, and a second thrust reverser door. The first thrust reverser door being pivotally attached to the fixed structure along a first pivot axis, and the second thrust reverser door being pivotally attached to the fixed structure along a second pivot axis. The first pivot axis and the second pivot axis are both radially located at a first distance from the assembly axial centerline. The first pivot axis is located at a first axial position, and the second pivot axis is located at a second axial position. The second axial position is displaced from the first axial position.
