B777 Kreuger flap
Hi,
FCOM 2 mentions "A two–position Krueger flap provides a seal between the inboard slat and engine nacelle on each wing."
I tried to catch the slats and flaps extension during landing on youtube but don't seem to observe the movement of the krueger flaps. Any idea?
FCOM 2 didn't mention anything with regards to extension and retraction of the krueger flaps too. Am I missing something?
Thanks

The 777's krueger flap is very small, and may be hidden in a view from the cabin by the inboard slats, which extend at the same time.
Another, front view of slats extension - about 1:05 into the video.
