Method and apparatus for controlling airflow with a leading edge device having a flexible flow surface
A first airfoil portion (101) includes upper and lower flow surfaces (114,115). A second airfoil portion (102) includes a flexible flow surface (140) whose shape varies according to the position of the second airfoil portion. A guide structure (150) is coupled between the first and second airfoil po...

| Zusammenfassung: | A first airfoil portion (101) includes upper and lower flow surfaces (114,115). A second airfoil portion (102) includes a flexible flow surface (140) whose shape varies according to the position of the second airfoil portion. A guide structure (150) is coupled between the first and second airfoil portions. The second airfoil portion can be moved relative to the first airfoil portion. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) an aircraft; and (b) an aircraft airfoil operating method. |
