The planet carrier comprises interplanetary portions (42) that are located between adjacent pairs of planet gears (32) and have a first and a second circumferential surface (44, 46) facing each adjacent planet gear (32); and direction features (52) on at least one of the circumferential surfaces (44, 46) that, in use, direct fluid ejected with a radial component from the planet gears (32) and direct it with an axial component.",
