    Abstract: A method for testing an arresting unit (15) for locking a foldable wing tip portion (11) to a wing (5) that includes a fixed wing (9), a foldable wing tip portion (11), and a folded position, an actuation unit (13) for actuating movement of the foldable wing tip portion (11), and an arresting unit (15) for locking the foldable wing tip portion (11). The method includes: locking the foldable wing tip portion (11) in the extended position by the arresting unit (15), controlling the actuation unit (13) to move the foldable wing tip portion (11) in the direction towards the folded position, such that the foldable wing tip portion (11) urges against the arresting unit (15) with a predefined test load, detecting deformation of the arresting unit (15) during or after application of the test load, and comparing the detected deformation to a predefined threshold deformation.

    Abstract: A high lift system for an aircraft, comprises a drive unit, a high lift surface, at least one primary drive station, each primary drive station having a shaft connection couplable with the drive unit and a primary lever couplable with the high lift surface. The high lift system further comprises at least one secondary unit, each secondary unit having a secondary lever couplable with the high lift surface. Each one of the at least one primary drive station is adapted for moving the respective primary lever on driving the shaft connection, and each one of the at least one secondary unit comprises a selectively activatable brake, such that the secondary lever follows the motion of the one of the at least one high lift surface when the brake is deactivated.

    Abstract: A method for operating a wing (5) including a fixed wing (9), a foldable wing tip portion (11) mounted to the fixed wing (9) pivotally between an extended position and a folded position, an actuation unit (13) for actuating movement of the foldable wing tip portion (11), and an arresting unit (15) for locking the foldable wing tip portion (11) in the extended position and/or in the folded position. The method includes controlling the actuation unit (13) to move the foldable wing tip portion (11) either to the extended position or to the folded position until the foldable wing tip portion (11) or the actuation unit (13) contacts a stop element (28), continuing actuation until the actuation unit (13) reaches a stall condition, detecting the stall condition of the actuation unit (13), and locking the arresting unit (15) upon detection of the stall condition.

    Abstract: A method to detect a failure of a sensor or system in an aircraft, wherein the aircraft includes a wing including a fixed wing and a wing tip device pivotably mounted to the fixed wing, a sensor system, and a control unit including a system behavior model which models a target vale of an operation parameter of the wing, wherein the method includes: detecting a value of an operation parameter by the sensor system; comparing the detected value of the operation parameter to a corresponding target value of the operation parameter obtained from the system behavior model, and declaring a sensor failure or a system failure in response to determining a predefined deviation of the detected value from the corresponding target value of the operation parameter, detecting a sensor failure or a system failure.
