Those trailing edge flaps on the 747 are GIGANTIC. Gives you a totally different sense of scale and proportion seeing them from the ground!

The entirety of the 747 is awsome, but an up close of the hydraulic flap mechanisms is amazing! All those moving parts means all that maintaining and repair for optimal safe performance...mind boggling!

This is some of the most helpful, and interesting content ever! Being a 3D artist for a flight simulator, it's amazing having KZread videos like these. Thanks so much Obet maz747!

I really love the 747. It has been my favorite arliner since I was a child. Played hundreds of hours over various MSFS installments on PC. Wished it was properly simulated in the newest one, but sadly it has many problems. Your videos though are a great help to compensate the pain over that issue. Please show us more about this beatiful piece of engineering and aviation history! If you have not already, consider me intrested in the hydraulic and fuel system!

Older planes like the 747 have a "thrust gate" which is a gap in the flaps where the engine thrust passes through. The inboard gap on the 747 houses the all-speed aileron. Modern planes like the A380 have flaps all across the wing and these capture thrust on takeoff and channel it downwards, reducing the takeoff run distance. Some planes also use the all-speed aileron as a flap or as a flap/spoiler as well, called a flaperon. Airbuses don't have all-speed ailerons though, it's a Boeing thing only. Maybe the A300/A310 had them though.

The 747 does not simply deploy or retract flaps.... It deconstructs and rebuilds its wings inflight.

All I get in kerbal are dunning-kruger flaps

Triple slotted flaps? Or triple slotted fowler flaps?

Great channel, Captain! I just subbed to it. Can't locate the flap extension video, could you please link it?

Yes the air driven hydraulic pumps number 1 and 4 are on and pressurise the system. Powered by the APU

@ImperrfectStranger

3 жыл бұрын

The Auxilliary Power Unit (APU) in the tail is providing pneumatic (pressurised air) power to the air-driven hydraulic pumps in the outboard engine struts for trailing edge flap operation. The APU also provides pneumatic power to the air-driven motors which drive the leading edge flaps. It could be done electrically, but that would be much slower.

👍👍👍

Instead of the pies it is Mi Goreng at WIII.

Wow

And all those hydraulic motors are attached to wing boxes that hold the fuel tanks..

Wow so bigs...

Krueger flapes are also known as slats

@thatg6838

Ай бұрын

No, Krueger flaps are not known as slats. They are 2 different leading edge devices. The Krueger flaps fold out from under the leading edge to increase the wings camber or “curve” to increase lift. Slats are attached to the front of the leading edge and when they extend the push out forward and down to open a slot gap between itself and the wing so that high pressure air from the bottom of the wing to energise the top air and reduce stall speed. The 747 as only Krueger flaps and no slats. Planes like the 737 has both. Krueger flaps between the fuselage and engines and slats outside the engines towards the wingtips.

0:56 Or slats.

later! :)

Boeing did offer RR, P&W as well as GE. The only customer for the passenger ER, Qantas, took theirs with GE.

Very different from the C-5

They should be called Krueger Slats rather that flaps. Slats are not slotted and are fitted to the leading edge of the wing. Flaps are known to be at the trailing edge of the wing and most aircraft including small aircraft don't have slotted, or have slotted flaps. Ohh well, still, awesome.
