Aileron Rib

Aileron ribs are components used in the construction of aircraft ailerons, which are control surfaces located on the trailing edge of the wings. Ailerons are responsible for controlling the roll of an aircraft by deflecting in opposite directions.

Aileron ribs are structural components that provide support and shape to the ailerons. They are typically made of lightweight materials such as aluminum or composite materials. These ribs are designed to withstand the aerodynamic forces and loads experienced during flight.

In the supply class Airframe Structural Components, aileron ribs are categorized as part of the overall structure of the aircraft. They are specifically classified under the supply group Aerospace Craft And Structural Components, which encompasses various components used in the construction and maintenance of aerospace craft.

Overall, aileron ribs play a crucial role in the functionality and stability of an aircraft's ailerons, contributing to the safe and efficient operation of the aircraft during flight.
