Hi
mainly with reference to the trailing edge devices and to the kruger flaps as they are reaponsible for increasing the camber of the wing, amongst other things.
the slats in their extended position- b737ng - do increase the camber as well as they droop down, while in their fully extended position they allow high pressure air from the under side of the wing to flow over the top, energizing the laminar flow and thus decresing the stall speed - if i am correct.

many thanks

Thanks
