Claim 10:
11. The assembly of claim 9, wherein
the plurality of cascade segments further include a third cascade segment, and the third cascade segment has a third cascade segment flow area and is associated with a third lateral sector of the assembly;
the third lateral sector of the assembly has a third axial leakage flow area, a third radial leakage flow area and a third total flow area, and the third total flow area equal to a sum of at least the third cascade segment flow area, and the third leakage flow area and the third radial leakage flow area;
the third axial leakage flow area is a flow area for axial flow around the blocker door assembly within the third lateral sector of the assembly;
the third radial leakage flow area is a flow area for radial flow around the third cascade segment within the third lateral sector of the assembly; and
the third total flow area is within twenty percent of the first total flow area.
