Aileron Trim Tab

Aileron Trim Tab is a component that falls under the supply class Airframe Structural Components in the supply group Aerospace Craft And Structural Components.

An aileron trim tab is a small, movable surface located on the trailing edge of an aircraft's aileron. It is used to adjust the balance and control of the aircraft during flight. The aileron trim tab can be adjusted to counteract any imbalances or deviations in the aircraft's flight characteristics, such as roll or yaw.

By adjusting the position of the aileron trim tab, the pilot can fine-tune the aircraft's control surfaces to maintain stable flight and reduce the workload on the control inputs. This helps to ensure smooth and precise control of the aircraft, especially during maneuvers or in varying flight conditions.

The aileron trim tab is typically controlled by the pilot through the use of a trim wheel or trim lever in the cockpit. By turning the trim wheel or moving the trim lever, the pilot can adjust the position of the aileron trim tab, thereby changing the balance and control of the aircraft.

Overall, the aileron trim tab is an important component of the aircraft's control system, allowing for precise control and stability during flight.
