Abstract:
An aircraft lifting surface with a monolithic main supporting structure of a composite material including an upper skin having at least a part of the upper aerodynamic profile of the leading edge and/or of the trailing edge, a lower skin, a front spar, a rear spar, and leading edge ribs and/or a trailing edge ribs. The main supporting structure allows a weight and cost reduction of aircraft lifting surfaces.
Abstract:
An aircraft lifting surface with a torsion box of a composite material including an upper skin, a lower skin, a front spar, a rear spar, one or more intermediate spars and transverse ribs arranged between the rear spar and an adjacent intermediate spar and/or between the front spar and the adjacent intermediate spar.
