The mainplanes were constructed as two-spar fail-safe structures from 2024-T4 light alloy supporting the engines, ailerons and hydraulically actuated single slotted flaps.
32.
The full-span slotted flaps / ailerons extend and retract in and out of the wing trailing edge, increasing the area of the wings by up to 36 %.
33.
In addition, the 747 has split control surfaces and was designed with sophisticated triple-slotted flaps that minimize landing speeds and allow the 747 to use standard-length runways.
34.
The TSC-1A2 Teal II was a development of the TSC-1A1, It incorporated slotted flaps, a change in horizontal stabilizer incidence and larger elevator trim tab travel.
35.
Such complex flap arrangements are found on many modern aircraft . Large modern airliners make use of " triple-slotted flaps " to produce the massive lift required during takeoff.
36.
L . E . Baynes designed the Youngman-Baynes High Lift Research Aircraft, an experimental flying test-bed for the system of slotted flaps invented by R . T . Youngman.
37.
Innovative features included a high aspect ratio wing and slotted flaps for STOL performance and a unique upswept rear fuselage with a door / ramp allowing large loads to be fitted into the fuselage.
38.
The commonly taught procedure of reducing flap following an engine failure on take off leads to a critical reduction in lift in the MU-2 due to the highly effective double-slotted flaps.
39.
Powered by two L-1000 turbojets and featuring a futuristic-appearing slotted flaps to enhance lift, the single-seat fighter was expected to have a top speed of in level flight,
40.
Some aircraft, such as the Denney Kitfox, suspend the flaperons below the wing ( rather in the manner of slotted flaps ) to provide undisturbed airflow at high angles of attack or low airspeeds.
