FLAP/SLAT Handle - Electrically Controlled Slats
1. FLAP/SLAT Handle
Lifting FLAP/SLAT handle up and pulling aft to latch in preselected takeoff
DIAL-A-FLAP detent, 28° go-around gate, or 35°/50° landing flap detent,
extends the flaps and the slats.
Rotating the FLAP T.O. SEL thumbwheel until the proper takeoff flap setting
appears in the FLAP T.O. SEL indicator sets the takeoff DIAL-A-FLAP
detent.
The 28° go-around detent has a gate/stop to prevent inadvertent
extension/retraction of the flaps. The handle can be maneuvered past the
gate/stop.
Lifting the handle up and aft past the go-around gate to either the 35° or the
50° landing detent extends landing flaps.
Lifting the handle out of the detent and moving it forward past the go-around
gate retracts landing flaps.
Positioning the handle at the 0°/EXT detent (flaps retracted/slats extended)
retracts the flaps without retracting the slats. Maneuvering the handle from
the 0°/EXT detent gate to positively engage it in the FLAP UP/SLAT RET
detent retracts the slats.
