Default This is a "Fowler" flap!!!(and a 737 flap)

Yes that would be fine...lets make sure that when everything is hooked up it actually works. Alot of work, theory and was it you that said sanding? My life is measuring! Gear boxes were first made in metal and then a mold was made and the samples are urethane, light and strong.
Enclosed is one of my early mechanical flaps. Plane is trying to be DC-9 50 series. It has leadfing edge Droop not slat and spoiler set at trailing edge. Outboard augmentation spoiler rolls with aileron(ala Boeing not Douglas) well boys... this forum won't allow me to attach a 295 DPI photo of my plane...What a joke!!! If anyone wants to see a photo of it let me know a address I can send it to.Dean
