A movement- and/or load transfer-limiting device for a turbine engine, comprises a first fitting including a retention member, with the first fitting being engaged with a fancase surrounding a turbine engine fan blade system. A second fitting is engaged with a fancowl disposed radially outward of the fancase. The second fitting includes a constraint member arranged to be received by the retention member. The retention member is arranged to limit radially outward movement of the fancowl via engagement with the constraint member. The constraint member comprises at least one of (i) a hook member arranged to limit radially inward movement of the first fitting in relation to the fancowl or (ii) a laterally-extending shaft having opposed ends and a flange engaged with at least one of the ends, arranged to limit lateral movement of the retention member in relation to the first fitting. Associated devices and methods are also provided.
