Trim horizontal stabilizer for improving aircraft performances

Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

In order to have a smooth movement between the trim horizontal stabilizer and the posterior fuselage, with a small influence on the aircraft performance, we had to envision such a mechanism which made the entire trim horizontal stabilizer remain in contact with aft fuselage surface, while maintaining the sealing of the cut-out and the spar cover, so that it made the aircraft more aerodynamic.
