RE: WIP: F-14 B/D
Here’s what I’ve found :
Looks like :- cove doors move as one piece ;
- cove doors share the same hinges than flaps ;
- cove doors have two positions : DOWN and UP ;
- same cove doors process for the auxiliary flap.
Flaps UP (0°) = Cover door > down (Clean profile)
Flaps MANEUVER (0° > 10°) = Cover door > down (not enought separated from flap to move up)
Flaps DOWN (at 25°) = Spoilers at -4.5° to meet cover door ;
Flaps DOWN (10° > 35°) = Cover door > up (My guess is that door going directly to UP… but I’m not sure) -
RE: WIP: F-14 B/D
OK sorry for my bad understanding
Not to be annoying: If i’m not mistaking in picture 2 and 3 of your april 22 's post, wing sweep looks at is minimum (around 20°) so in that case, auxiliary flap should be extended (because this action is linked with “main flap down more than 5°”).
I 'll look at the cove door. -
RE: WIP: F-14 B/D
it rotates up as one part even if only the main flap is deployed, will have to check if in RL it is a two piece componenthttps://i.imgur.com/gaI9HTr.png
Hi Stingray 62,
Congratulations for the work you are still doing on this bird.About Tomcat’s flaps law :
- Auxiliary flaps have only two positions > UP or DOWN (35°)
- In addition to some speed’s limits, flaps positions limit the wing-sweep position :
- Less than 21° sweep if the auxiliary flaps are down.
- Less than 50° if the main flaps are extended.
- Between 21° and 50° sweep > main flaps will extend but auxiliary will remain retracted.
For info, slats don’t affect the wing sweep posit
NATOPS procedures say :
- Landing > Wing sweep = 20° + all flaps full down as one piece (35°)
- Take off > Wing sweep = 20° + flaps as required (Flaps up take off are available according to gross weight and thrust conditions !)

RE: F-4 Phantom
On the same wing, the 2 sections moved separately : The inner slat was fully retractable at high speeds, but the outer slat remained deployed in both the cruise and high-lift con-figurations
