Hi all,
Apologies for posting on this forum when I'm not an a/c engineer, but I was wondering if anyone could point me to any websites or sources of information with an explanation of the flap track mechanism used on airliners these days?
There are *hundreds* of sites out there with simple slotted flap diagrams, but I can't find any technical diagrams or explanations of the mechanism.
If it's important - I'm looking at the smaller range of aircraft (A320 / 737 etc). I don't know if the larger a/c have different mechanisms.
Many thanks,
Martin
