Abstract

The gas turbine engine can have a casing, a rotor rotatable around a rotation axis relative the casing, the casing extending along and around the rotation axis, a first component mounted externally to the casing by a first mount, the first mount defining a torsion axis extending along a vertical radial orientation normal the rotation axis, the first component having a center of gravity located on a first side relative the torsion axis, a second component mounted externally to the casing on the second side, extending along the vertical radial orientation from a bottom portion to a top portion, a second mount structurally connecting the bottom portion to the casing, and a structure connecting the top portion to the first component on the second side relative the torsion axis.
