Abstract

This invention relates to an aft pylon fairing for the suspension system of an aircraft engine, comprising a main structure extending along a longitudinal direction of said fairing and integrating two side panels connected to each other, the fairing also comprising a heat protection deck mounted on said main structure through connection means comprising tabs designed to deform to accompany displacement of the deck relative to the main structure, if there is differential thermal expansion between these two entities.
