Question 30

Plain flaps

Answer 30

Plain flaps hinge to the back of the wing, and they pivot down when you extend them.

Question 31

Split Flaps

Answer 31

deflect from the lower surface of the wing. Split flaps produce slightly more lift than plain flaps, but like their plain counterparts, they also produce a lot of drag.

Question 32

Slotted flaps

Answer 32

Flaps with a slot in it to allow air flow in between to not lose as much airflow there for decreasing potential drag

Question 33

Fowler flaps

Answer 33

Fowler flaps increase the area of your wing by extending out on rails or tracks. Fowler flaps often have a series of slots to add energy to the airflow as well

Question 34

Fuel system and vents

Answer 34

Gravity fed from 2 wing tanks to a 4 position selector valve then through a strainer to the carburetor. Prime draws from strainer.
Left and right are connected, left has a check valve to a vent under the wing and right has a vent on the cap.

Question 35

Electrical system

Answer 35

Aircraft is equipped with a 28 volt direct current electrical system. The system is powered by a belt driven 60-amp alternator and a 24 volt battery. Power is supplied to electrical and avionics through the primary and avionics bus bars.
