Abstract:
A nacelle may include a track lock for a thrust reverser. The track lock may comprise a track lock blade which prevents the thrust reverser from accidentally deploying. The track lock blade may comprise a pressurized blade chamber which receives hydraulic fluid through a bore in a piston. In the event of failure of the track lock blade, the hydraulic fluid may leak from the track lock blade and be apparent upon visual inspection.
