A low drag nacelle and pylon fairing for an aircraft includes a fairing configured to provide a low drag connection between a pylon and a nacelle. The fairing includes an aft-facing face formed between the nacelle and a trailing edge of the pylon with the aft-facing face being configured with a vent for exhausting air in the same direction as engine jet exhaust flow. The fairing includes aerodynamically formed curves providing a larger aft-facing face compared with traditional fairing arrangements. A substantial improvement in drag reduction is achieved by venting air into the space immediately beyond the aft-facing face.
