Air Crash Investigation: Twin Otter DHC-6 300 Flap Actuator

Hi there,

I work for the television show "Air Crash Investigation" that airs on National Geographic channels around the world. We're working on an episode about the 2007 Twin Otter Air Moorea accident, which was investigated by the BEA.

Can someone help me with a flap actuator question? If you look at the BEA report on page 27, you'll find a small underwater shot of the flap actuator, which they found in the "flaps retracted position". We need our Art Department to build this flap actuator, so that we can demonstrate on television how it was found in the flaps retracted position versus the flaps takeoff position. I'm having a difficult time visualizing it. Could someone possibly explain this to me - ideally with some photos?

Thank you in advance.
