Abstract

A mounting structure for an aircraft engine including a rigid structure and a mechanism to mount the engine on the rigid structure. The mounting mechanism includes a thrust load device including two side thrust links each including an aft end mounted on an evener bar of the device, via a mechanical connection. Each connection is formed by a lug provided on the evener bar and passing through an orifice made in the aft end, the lug being arranged so as to extend substantially laterally relative to the mounting structure.
