we look at high lift devices installed on an aircraft wing. We focus on 2 high lift devices: Flaps and Slats. We see the operation of these devices in different configurations and the impact of these configurations on an aircraft.
We also look at the biggest concern when flying at low speeds: Stall. We see the variation of lift with the angle of attack and the variation of Stall Angle when flaps and slats are used.
There are total 3 Flight Control Surfaces in any airplane.
1. Primary flight control surfaces
2. Secondary flight control surfaces
3. Auxiliary flight control surfaces
Primary Flight Control Surfaces have further controlling surface.
1. Aileron (Roll/Bank Control)
2. Elevator (Pitch Control)
3. Rudder (Yaw Control)
Secondary Control Surfaces
1. Trim Tabs (to make the airplane stable and to reduce air pressure on pilot's control yoke)
2. Balance Tabs (To reduce the air pressure on pilot's control stick)
Auxiliary Flight Control Surfaces
1. Flaps
( a. Plain Flap; b. split flap; c. Slotted Flap & d. Fowler flaps)
Commercial airplanes used Slotted Fowler Flaps
2. Spoilers
3. Slats & Slots
Flaps Lever
Spoiler Lever
Control Yoke
Rudder Pedals
We cover all topics of Commercial Pilot Training
Technical Specific
Air Regulations
Aviation Meteorology
Technical General
Air Navigation
RTR (Aero)
