  2. Aileron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aileron

    Modern airliners may also have a second pair of ailerons on their wings, with the two positions distinguished by the terms 'outboard aileron' and 'inboard aileron'. An unwanted side effect of aileron operation is adverse yaw—a yawing moment in the opposite direction to the roll. Using the ailerons to roll an aircraft to the right produces a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_control_surfaces

    Most fixed-wing aircraft have a trimming control surface on the elevator, but larger aircraft also have a trim control for the rudder, and another for the ailerons. The rudder trim is to counter any asymmetric thrust from the engines. Aileron trim is to counter the effects of the centre of gravity being displaced from the aircraft centerline ...

  4. Spoiler (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoiler_(aeronautics)

    Spoiler controls can be used for roll control (outboard or mid-span spoilers) or descent control (inboard spoilers). Some aircraft use spoilers in combination with or in lieu of ailerons for roll control, primarily to reduce adverse yaw when rudder input is limited by higher speeds.

  5. 1959 Washington Boeing 707 crash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1959_Washington_Boeing_707...

    Engine No. 3 alone would have been enough to reach an airport, however, the fire raging in the left wing destroyed the left inboard aileron and disabled the outboard ailerons. Additionally, the loss of power caused by the loss of three engines disabled the inboard spoilers and the rudder boost, leaving only the right inboard aileron and ...

  7. Elevon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevon

    X-53 Active Aeroelastic Wing in flight. Several technology research and development efforts exist to integrate the functions of aircraft flight control systems such as ailerons, elevators, elevons and flaps into wings to perform the aerodynamic purpose with the advantages of less: mass, cost, drag, inertia (for faster, stronger control response), complexity (mechanically simpler, fewer moving ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_flight_control_system

    Cockpit controls and instrument panel of a Cessna 182D Skylane. Generally, the primary cockpit flight controls are arranged as follows: [2] A control yoke (also known as a control column), centre stick or side-stick (the latter two also colloquially known as a control or joystick), governs the aircraft's roll and pitch by moving the ailerons (or activating wing warping on some very early ...

  9. Flaperon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flaperon

    Boeing 777 flaperon Flaperons on a Denney Kitfox Model 3, built in 1991 Flaperons (Junkers style) on an ICP Savannah Model S, built in 2010 Work of the flaperon of Boeing 777. A flaperon (a portmanteau of flap and aileron) on an aircraft's wing is a type of control surface that combines the functions of both flaps and ailerons.
