  "textContent": "A trans cowl for a jet engine includes a chevron coupled with a linear actuators. The chevron is movable by the linear actuator forward or aft to change a gas flow path formed by an core cowl and thrust reverser translating cowl. In a first position, the chevrons are disposed substantially parallel the gas flow path to attenuate drag and/or loss of engine thrust. In a second position, the chevrons are moved aft to project, or further project, into the gas flow path. In one embodiment, the linear actuator comprises a first component that is coupled with the outer cowl. A second component of the linear actuator is coupled with the chevron. When installed, the linear actuator can be coupled with a controller and an electrical power source. A position sensor coupled with the controller senses a position of the linear actuator and/or the chevron.",
