  1. landing flap

    A landing flap is a type of high-lift device found on the wings of an aircraft. It is extended during landing to increase the drag and lift characteristics of the wing, allowing for slower speeds and steeper descent angles during landing. This helps to shorten the distance required for landing and reduce the risk of stalling during approach.
