Unhappy

My dusty memory seems to think that i/b (hi-spd) ailerons on the B4 had a droop mechanism similar to the A310 that was hyd controlled also (A310 hyd droop sig comes from slat extend hyd line). They were not mechanically connected in the physical sense from memory. On A310, both ailerons droop (6 or 11 degrees, depending on whether -200 or -300 a/c) to accentuate lift when flaps extended. This does not alter function of the ailerons, only redatums their zero position. Try watching the flt ctl ecam page as you put the slats out, and notice the ail zero bar move down to suit.
