The cowl door (65) is openable outwardly from the casing (21) to expose a casing interior. The hinge (60) is located above a longitudinal axis (9) of the casing (21) and comprises a pivoting linkage (75, 80) arranged such that, upon actuation between closed and open cowl door conditions, the pivoting linkage (75, 80) moves an upper portion of the cowl door (65) downwards towards the longitudinal axis (9).
