A wing spoiler actuator mechanism includes an upper spoiler having a free end and a hinge end pivotally coupled to a wing structure at a first fixed axis, a door pivotally coupled to the wing structure at a second axis, and an actuator pivotally mounted to the wing structure between the upper spoiler and the door, the actuator having an extendable first end coupled to the upper spoiler and an opposite second end. Extension of the first end of the actuator rotates the upper spoiler to a deployed position and rotates the actuator such that the second end of the actuator induces downward rotation of the door from a closed position to an open position and the second end of the actuator extends below the wing structure during spoiler deployment.
