If you are referring to my comment that started this thread then I think it has been totally misinterpreted. My observation was a noticeable negative aileron deflection (clearly visible in the videos) and a question/theory as to why that might be the case.
and
Now maybe you can understand why my observation that negative aileron deflection (yes negative means up - thats the convention) may have been employed to inboard load the wing.
In what professional circles is the term "
Negative Deflection" used when considering the rigging (or otherwise) position of flying controls?
I only ask as having worked in aircraft maintenance for the best part of 30 years it is not a term that I have seen commonly used. Maybe I'm missing something, but "Up/Down" or "Left/Right" have sufficed for now without causing any confusion.
Unlike the original post.
