An example of a high lift device would be a. flaps. b. slats. c. leading edge extensions. d. all the above. e. none of the above. d. All the examples given are high lift devices that increase the effective wing area. This increases the distance air has to travel over and under the wing, creating a larger pressure differential, which will increase lift at lower airspeeds. Aircraft performance increases in cold weather because a. cold air improves fuel flow. b. cold air is more ...
