A gas turbine engine nacelle comprising an intake liner. The liner includes a plurality of cells. Each cell includes an open radially inner end in fluid communication with an interior side of the nacelle, and an open radially outer end in fluid communication with an exterior side of the nacelle. Each open end of each cell defines a respective cross sectional area. The intake liner further comprises radially inner and outer facing sheets overlying a respective radially inner and outer open ends of the respective cell. Each facing sheet defines at least one aperture overlying at least one cell, an overlying portion of the respective aperture having a smaller cross sectional area than the respective open end of the respective cell.
