Dear Ivan,



Being the builder of the PH-DIY (XS Tri-gear) I have always wondered

about the design of the outer flap hinges.

It is my impression that the "double" hinge construction of the outer

flap hinges is a left over of the mono wheel design where these flap

hinges have to support the out riggers. For the tri gear it looks like

this construction has been left "as is" (but without the outriggers of

course) to avoid recertification issues.

If my impression, that the load on the outer flap hinge is not different

than the load on the inner of middle flap hinge, is incorrect, I would

love to hear more about this. Reason is that I want to understand the

design of my beloved Europa aircraft.



Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge about this.



Ilona and Frans,

PH-DIY
