9.9 Flap Controls
9.9.1 Flap Controls Description
The flap control surfaces are driven by an electric actuator. There are three positions for the flaps: 0°,
15°, and 30°. When the pilot turns the knob to move the flaps, the linear actuator moves a system of
pushrods and bellcranks, which in turn moves the wing flaps down. The flaps return to the zero position
using gas struts.
