Disclosed is a mast for the suspension of a bypass turbine engine beneath a wing of an aircraft in which the wing has at least one flap. The mast includes a rear fairing that protrudes rearward of a trailing edge of the wing and is mounted so as to tilt in a deployed downward position as the flap is deployed in a downward position. The rear fairing is positioned to enter a cold flow of the turbine engine, when deployed in the downward position. The rear fairing further supports at least one aerodynamic element that generates vortices that reduce, if not eliminates, vibrations to which the rear fairing is subjected.
