Primary Flight Control System - ANSWERSManages ailerons, elevators, and rudder. Input on this system changes airflow pressure and distribution. Secondary Flight Control System - ANSWERSManages wing flaps, leading edge devices, spoilers, and trim tabs. Assists in optimizing aircraft performance during a flight. Input on this system increases lift and adjusts drag. Cowlings - ANSWERSRemovable pieces of an aircraft's outer skin that protect important areas on the aircraft from aerodynamic an...
