Paul Bikle Flap System
by
Graeme Rickert
VH-GGB has the Paul Bikle "two handle" flap actuation system.
The first handle is within reach up to 30 degrees with detents at -5, 0, +5, +10, +20 and a forward stop at +30 degrees. After opening flap to +30, you shift your hand to the front handle which is now in reach.
The second handle provides continuous movement from +30 to +90 degrees.
The complete mechanical linkage for the flaps and flap position micro-switch are shown in the above pictures.
