The bay (12) of a turbofan engine (10) comprises a front structural element (30), whose external surface is continuous and extends over at least 50% of the geometrical chord of the bay. Said element (30) is installed on maintaining and guiding members (44), such as slides, which prevent a significant deformation in flight and allow a sliding to the front of the element (30) for maintenance purposes. A laminar air flow around the front half of the bay (12) is consequently ensured.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] Jet engine bay carried by a suspension pylon and comprising:a rear structural element,a front structural element, integrating an air intake box and an external shell extending rearwards and without any discontinuity, an external surface of the air intake box, so that the front structural element has a continuous, external surface extending over at least 50% of the geometrical chord of the bay,maintenance and guidance means, interposed between the front structural element and a jet engine fan case, so as to allow a limited sliding forwards of the front structural element parallel to a longitudinal axis of the bay andlocking means normally opposing said sliding, and wherein said front structural element comprises a protuberance surround, without discontinuity, and shrouding a front part of said suspension pylon.
