Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An oil tank filling system 50 for filling the oil tank 52 of a gas turbine engine 10. The system includes an oil tank 52 located within a core 11 of the engine, an oil filling reservoir 53 located within a bifurcation 70 that extends from the core of the engine, an oil tank filling pipe 56 that leads from the oil filling reservoir 53 to a tank filling port 58 on the oil tank, and an oil pump 61. The system is configured so that the oil pump pumps oil from the oil filling reservoir through the oil tank filling pipe and the tank filling port to fill the oil tank. A method of filling the oil tank of a gas turbine engine and a gas turbine engine that includes the oil tank filling system are also disclosed.
