Week 31 of our follow-up of the building of a Pelican Sport from Ultravia Aero International Inc.

Let's take a peek at the aileron and flap control mechanism while the protective plate is taken off.

Animation on the left, prepared with Christian's help, shows the movement of the aileron (in the background) synchronized with that of the flap (foreground). This combination gives excellent lift, near STOL capabilities (short take-off or landing).
