Leading-edge slats and flaps occupy opposite ends of the performance envelope. You probably don’t want both at the same time. If you have a slotted leading-edge you can land slower but you’re coming in at a steeper nose up angle. With slotted flaps you’re coming in a few miles an hour slower but you have a flatter deck angle and better visibility of where you’re going to be landing.
I used to think that a jig was something that you used with or on a tool. I thought that pretty much any tool used with an aircraft could fit in the back of a full-size pickup truck. I thought that a jig would fit in the back of a pickup truck, if not in the cab of the truck. Every CNC machine took up at least 6 feet by 10 feet of floor space, and the mill was at least 10 feet high in the middle.
It was impressive to see the investment that Airframes Alaska put into their shop, from the equipment to people, training, floor space and dedication to quality.
A big thank you to Airframes Alaska.
