Gust locks are often used on parked aircraft with mechanical systems to protect the control surfaces and linkages from damage from wind. Some aircraft have gust locks fitted as part of the control ...

    The case of high-wing configuration wing was different. Full scale testing of a modified Cessna 172 showed that the outboard leading-edge cuff alone was not sufficient to prevent a spin departure, the aircraft lacking directional stability at high angles of attack.

    Cessna NGP, a prototype single-engine aircraft intended to eventually replace the Cessna 172 and Cessna 182. CZAW Parrot [ 5 ] Saab Safari , Bölkow Junior and ARV Super2 all have shoulder wings for increased visibility, necessitating forward-swept wings to allow the wing root to be positioned behind the pilots’ heads so it does not obscure ...
