Wing spoilers, when used asymmetrically, are associated with.

• Ailerons

• Rudder

• Elevators

If an aircraft is yawing to the left, where would you position the trim tab on the rudder?

• To the centre

• To the right

• To the left

If an aircraft is flying with a left wing low, where would you move the left aileron trim tab?

• Down

• Up

• Moving the aileron trim tab will not correct the situation

When a leading edge flap is fully extended, what is the slot in the wing for?

• To allow the flap to retract into it when it retracts

• To re-energise the boundary layer

• To increase the lift

An aircraft left wing is flying low. The aileron trimmer control to the left aileron trim tab in the cockpit would be.

• Moved up causing the left aileron to move up.

• Moved up causing the left aileron to move down.

• Moved down causing the left aileron to move down.

The purpose of a slot in a wing is to.

• Speed up the airflow and increase lift.

• Act as venturi, accelerate the air and re-energise boundary layer.

• Provide housing for the slat.

Large flap deployment.

• Has no effect on spanwise flow.

• Causes increased spanwise flow towards tips on wing upper surface.

• Causes increased spanwise flow towards tips on wing lower surface.

To ensure that a wing stalls at the root first, stall wedges are.

• Installed at the wing trailing edge at the wing root.

• Installed at the wing trailing edge at the wing root.

• Installed on the wing leading edge at the wing root.

Ailerons control the aircraft in the.

• Longitudinal plane.

• Directional plane.

• Lateral plane.

An anti-balance tab is used.

• For trimming the aircraft.
