  1. Uncontrolled copy not subject to amendment Principles of Flight

  2. Principles of Flight Learning Outcome 2: Understand how the stability of an aeroplane is maintained in flight and how manoeuvrability is controlled Part 3

  3. Principles of Flight Revision

  4. Questions • What happens to Lift when a Wing is Stalled? • Lift Increases as Angle of Attack Decreases. • Lift Decreases as Angle of Attack Increases. • Lift is Greatly Reduced. • Lift Remains unchanged.

  5. Questions • The Critical Angle of Attack is Generally about? • 5o. • 15o. • 25o. • 35o.

  6. Questions • Which of the following will NOT REDUCE the Stalling Speed? • Extra Weight. • Larger Wing Area. • Flaps Lowered. • Flaps Raised.

  7. Questions • Where would you find the information regarding • the Aircraft’s various Stalling Speeds? • Pilot’s Notes. • Air Traffic Control. • Ground Crew. • McDonald’s.

  8. High Lift Devices (Flaps)orLift Augmentation

  9. High Lift Devices • Objectives: • Describe the principle operation of Trailing Edge Flaps. • State the following for Trailing Edge Flaps: • Location, Effects on Lift, Effects on Drag, Types, • Advantages, and uses. • 3. Describe the principle operation of Leading Edge Slats. • 4. State the Advantages of Slats with reference to: • Stalling Speed, Stalling Angle, and Drag.

  10. High Lift Devices Why do we need High Lift Devices? • High Lift Devices come in many shapes and forms. • They are mounted on the Leading and Trailing edges of wings. • They create more Lift at lower speeds to allow lower take-off and landing speeds. • The Aircraft nose will be lower, allowing a better view for the Pilot. But how do they work?

  11. LIFT AUGMENTATION Weight (Constant) = Lift (Constant) = CL½ρV2S At Minimum Speed = CLMAX½ρV2MINS To further reduce the Minimum Speed? Raise the Value of CLMAX THIS IS THE PURPOSE OF LIFT AUGMENTATION

  12. METHODS OF LIFT AUGMENTATION FLAPS (Trailing Edge & Leading Edge) SLATS & SLOTS

  13. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES PLAIN FLAP 50% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 12o

  14. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES SPLIT FLAP 60% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 14o

  15. NIMROD Split Flap

  16. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES SLOTTED FLAP 65% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 16o

  17. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES THE BLOWN FLAP 80% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 16o

  18. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES FOWLER FLAP 90% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 15o

  19. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES AUTOMATIC SLAT 70% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 25o

  20. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES FIXED SLAT 50% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 20o

  21. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES SLOT 40% Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 20o

  22. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES KRUGER FLAP 50% ? Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 25o

  23. LIFT AUGMENTATION DEVICES “DROOP SNOOT” FLAP 50% ? Increase CLMAX Critical Angle 20o
