Formvariable Aerodynamic Fairing Body For A Flap Actuator Mechanism Of An Aircraft

Abstract

An aerodynamic fairing body for an aircraft, a corresponding aircraft and a corresponding method of manufacture for an aerodynamic fairing body are described. The fairing body is configured so as to accommodate a flap adjustment mechanism. Further, the fairing body is configured so as to be arranged at a predetermined distance from an engine of the aircraft, which produces a blast which varies depending on the flight phase. Furthermore, the fairing body is configured so as to be varied in shape in such a way that the fairing body is located outside the blast of the engine permanently. In other words, the fairing body can be varied in shape in such a way that it is located outside the engine blast in any flight phase of the aircraft.
