The system includes deflection transmission means () to provide a deflection position of the high-lift device () for each setting angle position of an adjustable HTP (). Preferably, the deflection transmission means () comprise essentially of a mechanical linkage connected between the high-lift device () and the aircraft ().

System for increasing controllability for an aircraft

An aircraft model for testing in a wind tunnel of width W including a fuselage, a truncated wing whose length Lis less than the length L of a full scaled wing and additional components in the rear of the aircraft as, in particular, a horizontal tail plane, that produces the same downwash that arrives to the additional components as in a full scaled model. The shape of the truncated wing may be designed for having a similar lift distribution to the lift distribution of a full scaled wing along at least the maximum length Lin the Y-axis of any component in the rear of the aircraft. The invention also relates to a method for designing the truncated wing.
