I'll have my new (double-slotted flaps) testbed flying in a few weeks, and will post the results here.
Hello Mike, I see your interest on flaps.
Seeking information about the "Bugatti R100" I found the detail of the original design of its very special flaps, patent by Bugatti in 1942. They were and are very original.
Down I enclosed an image of them.
Greetings, Angueto
