 |
|
Hi All:
Does anyone know the degrees of travel of the XL flaps and the rate at which they can be deployed and retracted (either in total travel time or degrees/sec). Has anyone ever counted the seconds? For that matter how long does it take to retract the 40 degrees of flaps in a C150? My memory of my training days fades and I am now using manual flaps and they work as quick as my wrist.

Nominal travel on the XL flaps is 30 degrees. If I recall correctly, total travel time to the stops is about 6 seconds.

I think I managed about 25 degrees of travel. Takes almost 7 seconds. I rarely use over 2-3 'seconds' of flap.
