Default Leading edge flaps

I would contact Larry of JHH [email protected] He's done leading edge flaps on a number of his airplanes.

John, the F-100 actually has leading edge slats as opposed to leading edge flaps. Slats physically detach from the wing by sliding on rails (or something similar) where the flaps are typically hinged on the lower surface to allow the leading edge to just drop downward.
