Abstract

An aircraft system includes a support structure, an aerodynamic component, a first coupling unit and a second coupling unit. The first coupling unit includes a first coupling mechanism movably coupling the aerodynamic component to a first coupling point at the support structure, and a second coupling mechanism coupling the aerodynamic component to a second coupling point at the support structure. The first and second coupling points are spatially separated from each other, wherein the first coupling mechanism and the second coupling mechanism interact with each other to enable a rotational movement of the aerodynamic component with respect to the support structure such that, during the rotational movement of the aerodynamic component, a center of rotation of the aerodynamic component is translated from a neutral position to an adjusted position. The second coupling unit pivotably moves the aerodynamic component about a pivot axis at the support structure.
