flaps angle
1combat flaps — Leading edge and/or trailing edge flaps used for maneuvering aircraft in combat. Such flaps are capable of being lowered at higher speeds. These flaps reduce the angle of attack for a given lift coefficient and flatten the spanwise load… …
2List of airplanes without flaps — Some aircraft were designed without flaps for the sake of wing design simplicity or for aerodynamic reasons (the flaps on a delta wing would create a too strong nose down momentum). Some of these aircraft are:* Avro Vulcan* B 58*… …
3slotted flaps — A type of trailing edge flap. These may be single, double, or triple slotted. They form a slot(s) between their leading edge and the inside of the flap well in the wing. The resultant airflow helps to control the boundary layer, resulting in… …

5airplane — /air playn /, n. 1. a heavier than air aircraft kept aloft by the upward thrust exerted by the passing air on its fixed wings and driven by propellers, jet propulsion, etc. 2. any similar heavier than air aircraft, as a glider or helicopter. Also …
6Gurney flap — The Gurney Flap (or wickerbill) is a small flat tab projecting from the trailing edge of a wing. Typically it is set at a right angle to the pressure side surface of the airfoil,cite journal author = Van Dam, C.P. coauthors = Yen, D.T.; Vijgen, P …
7Flight control surfaces — Aircraft flight control surfaces allow a pilot to adjust and control the aircraft s flight attitude.Development of an effective set of flight controls was a critical advance in the development of the aircraft. Early efforts at fixed wing aircraft …

10Stall (flight) — For other uses, see stall. In fluid dynamics, a stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a foil as angle of attack increases. This occurs when the critical angle of attack of the foil is exceeded. The critical angle of attack is… …
