aileron : Sur un avion, les ailerons sont des gouvernes agissant en sens opposé (l'une monte quand l'autre descend et inversement) et servant à produire un mouvement de roulis. Ils sont généralement situés à l'extrémité de l'aile car le bras de levier étant plus grand, l'effet recherché est d'autant plus grand. Sur les avions de ligne de type Boeing ou Airbus il existe, en plus des ailerons classiques en bout d'aile (utilisés aux basses vitesses), des ailerons situés près de l'emplanture utilisés aux grandes vitesses pour réduire les efforts de torsion dans l'aile. L'action des ailerons peut être complétée par celle des spoilers ou des aérofreins utilisés de façon non symétrique. 3, record 1, French, - nervure%20d%27aileron

The aileron sectors and load-feel cranks are located on the rear spar of each wing at the inboard end of the aileron. The sectors transmit movement of the cable systems through mechanical linkage to the control tabs and ailerons. The load-feel cranks provide a simulated feel of aileron flight load at the aileron control wheels and also act as a centering device to return the aileron control system to neutral. The two sectors and two load-feel cranks are mounted on a common bolt in the inboard aileron hinge support bracket.... The load-feel cranks are installed between the two sectors and are connected to each other by a spring at one end. Adjustable stopbolts at the other end of each crank are in contact with a stop on the wing structure. Adjustable stopbolts, midway along each crank, are in contact with stopbolts on a boss on the control tab sector. 2, record 6, English, - load%2Dfeel%20crank

Of the six spoilers on each side, four are used for aileron and airbrake functions. The inboard two are used only partially for aileron and airbrake. All six are used for lift-dumping after touchdown. The surfaces are actuated in symmetrical pairs by the three hydraulic systems. Each pair is electrically signalled from its own electronic element, so that there are six electronic elements distributed between the two control system electronic units(CSEU). 1, record 7, English, - control%20system%20electronic%20unit

Quatre des six spoilers de chaque côté servent d'ailerons et d'aérofreins. Les deux spoilers intérieurs ne sont que partiellement utilisés à cette fin. Tous les six sont employés comme destructeurs de portance après l'atterrissage. Chaque paire symétrique est actionnée par l'un des trois circuits hydrauliques. Chacune comporte son propre élément électronique de sorte que les deux unités électroniques du système de commande (UESC) en comptent six au total. 1, record 7, French, - unit%C3%A9%20%C3%A9lectronique%20du%20syst%C3%A8me%20de%20commande
