Zusammenfassung:A gas turbine engine including an outlet guide vane and a bifurcation fairing is disclosed. The outlet guide vane is located in a bypass duct of the gas turbine engine downstream of a fan and is of aerofoil form. The bifurcation fairing traverses the radial extent of the bypass duct and has an upstream end that blends into a trailing edge of the outlet guide vane. The bifurcation fairing includes a scoop protruding outwards from its side corresponding to a pressure side of the upstream outlet guide vane. The scoop includes a forward facing inlet leading to a delivery conduit extending inside the bifurcation fairing for delivery in use of bypass air to one or more components of the gas turbine engine.
