A lower attachment system for a trimmable horizontal stabiliser actuator (THSA) comprising: a screwshaft 200 forming a part of or coupled to a main screw 23 of the actuator, the screwshaft 200 having an axial direction; a primary ballnut 90 disposed on the screwshaft 200 and forming a part of a primary load path of the lower attachment system; a lower secondary nut 70 disposed on the screwshaft 200 axially adjacent the primary ballnut 90; an upper secondary nut 10 disposed on the screwshaft adjacent the lower secondary nut 70 and on the opposite side thereof to the primary ballnut 90; and a secondary connection 30 arranged for axial and rotational movement and coupled to each of the lower secondary nut 70 and the upper secondary nut 10; wherein the secondary connection 30 is arranged to be loaded when the secondary load path is loaded and the secondary load path also includes the upper and lower secondary nuts 10, 70; and wherein the couplings 40, 74, 92 between the secondary connection 30 and the upper and lower secondary nuts 10, 70 are arranged such that during normal use, when the primary ballnut 90 transmits the loading of the actuator along the primary load path, then there is no relative rotational movement of the secondary connection 30, the upper secondary nut 10 and the lower secondary nut 70, and such that when the secondary connection 30 is subject to an axial load resulting from load being transferred to the secondary load path, the upper secondary nut 10 and lower secondary nut 70 are compelled to rotate relative to one another thereby locking the threads of the secondary nuts 10, 70 with the screwshaft 200.
