Flap Protections
Krueger flaps are high lift devices that are fitted to all or part of the leading edge of the wings of some aircraft types. The aerodynamic effect of Krueger flaps is similar to that of slats; however, they are deployed differently. Krueger flaps are mounted on the bottom surface of the wing and are hinged at their leading edges. All I am getting confused (and I think others are) Are they Handley-Page Slots or Handley-Page Slats Slots are usually fixed, while Slats are automatic Is the confusion because when a Slat extends it becomes as 'Slot' I have a report of a Armstrong Whitworth Atlas incident in 1931 which was had a contributory feature that the 'Slots Sealed rather than with Slots Unsealed' - which indicates to. FLAPS SELECTION IN FLIGHT - When the flaps lever is moved from configuration 0 to 1 in flight, only the slats are extended. FLAP DIFFENTIAL SAME WING - A flap disconnect detection system is installed which stops flap movement if excessive differential movement is detected between the inner and outer flaps on the same wing. Flight Simulator X. An easy explanation on what these surfaces of control do in an airplane.
TAKEOFF WITH FLAPS 1 - When flaps 1 is selected for takeoff (1 + F), the trailing edge flaps automatically retract to configuration 0 at 210 KIAS.
TAKEOFF OR GO-AROUND WITH FLAPS 2 OR 3 - When flaps 1 is selected, the 1 + F configuration is obtained if airspeed is less than 210 KIAS. The trailing edge flaps automatically retract to configuration 0 at 210 KIAS.
HIGH AOA - An alpha lock function prevents initiation of slat retraction from position 1 to 0 at a high angle of attack or low airspeed. The inhibition is removed automatically when the angle of attack is reduced or airspeed is increased.
WING TIP BRAKES - Four hydraulically operated wing tip brakes are installed to lock the flaps or slats in case of asymmetry, overspeed, symmetrical runaway, or uncommanded movement. The brakes cannot be reset in flight.
FLAPS SELECTION IN FLIGHT - When the flaps lever is moved from configuration 0 to 1 in flight, only the slats are extended.
