An example apparatus includes a chine coupled to a nacelle, the chine rotatable relative to the nacelle about an axis of rotation, wherein:the chine is oriented along a fore-aft direction and the axis of rotation substantially perpendicular to a plane of the chine defined by an outer mold line of the chine; orthe axis of rotation is substantially perpendicular to a local area of an outer surface of the nacelle.
