Default RE: What is the function of crow?


ORIGINAL: 1320Fastback

In the sailplane world crow is the use of Ailerons and Flaps.

I have not seen flaps mentioned to be in use here but it's probably safe to say they are in use with jets.

If you don have flaps but reflex the ailerons up then this is called Spoilerons.
Yup same reference in this thread, reflexed ailerons with flaps. Not just jets tho, first plane I saw using crow was a stick!
