LEADING-EDGE DROOP ACTUATION SYSTEM

Abstract: an aircraft includes a wing and a leading-edge aerodynamic surface coupled to the wing. an actuator is disposed within the wing and coupled to the leading-edge aerodynamic surface via a linkage system. two or more hinge systems are coupled to the leading-edge aerodynamic surface and configured to rotate about a fixed axis internal to the wing to move the leading-edge aerodynamic surface between a retracted position and a drooped position.
