Abstract

A lifting surface of an aircraft, comprising a leading edge and a notch located in the leading edge. The notch comprises two walls adapted to be parallel to the direction of the incident flow to the lifting surface and a third wall adapted to face the incident flow to the lifting surface when it is in flight. The lifting surface also comprises a retractable cover element, the notch and the retractable cover element being configured such that when the retractable cover element does not cover the notch, the notch is exposed to the incident flow generating a vortex which increases the lift force of the lifting surface, delaying stall.
