The present disclosure is directed to an aircraft including a fuselage to which a pair or more of wings attaches. The aircraft defines a transverse direction, a longitudinal direction, and a latitudinal direction. The aircraft includes a wing extended from the fuselage along the transverse direction in which the wing defines a leading edge, and a gas turbine engine coupled to the wing. The engine defines an axial centerline therethrough along the longitudinal direction. The engine includes a nacelle including an outer wall extended around the axial centerline. The nacelle defines a radial reference plane extended perpendicular from the axial centerline. The outer wall defines an outer wall point closest to the fuselage. The radial reference plane extends through a reference line defined along the latitudinal direction from the outer wall point to the leading edge of the wing. The engine further includes a low pressure (LP) turbine rotor that includes an upstream-most first turbine rotor concentric to the axial centerline. The first turbine rotor is disposed downstream along the longitudinal direction of the radial reference plane.
