Cleveland Westland Whirlwind by edtherenderman. Viewed 240 times. Build Thread Next Prev Click image to return. Image Comments edtherenderman 28-Jan-22 08:29 Presenting the design for the fowler flaps. I looked on line for how they work on real aircraft and studied what available pictures I could find for the Whirlwind and came up this. There are two rails, one that runs along bottom of the wing, and one along the top. The flap has a pivot point in the leading edge that runs along the bottom rail. There is a bracket that is set into the flap about 1/3 of the way back from the trailing edge that has a pivot point in the flap and runs along the upper rail. As the flap extends back, the closing distance between the two rails forces the flap down. Please sign in to comment on this image.
