Spins Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Hello all! I was wondering if anyone could help me with some info. I'm looking for maximum control surface deflection for the ailerons, rudders (yaw and toe-in), horizontal stabs for pitch and differentially for roll. Thanks for any information you can provide!

Jamal Hi Jamal, Just went through my NATOPS Flight Manual for the F/A-18AC and it doesn't give the flight control deflections you're looking for. The only deflections given are for the TE flaps. Probably need a Hornet mech to chime in on this one. Cheers, John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Very odd that max deflections aren't listed! Figured it'd be a required baseline for the FCS check! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
