Abstract
An aircraft wing assembly configured to reduce aerodynamic noise generated by leading-edge slats during high-lift operations. The assembly may include a fixed wing portion, a leading-edge slat having a noise-suppressing projection on a cove surface, a projection receiving portion configured to receive the noise-suppressing projection when the leading-edge slat is in a retracted position, and a surface portion configured to move between a first position in which the surface portion at least partially defines the projection receiving portion and a second position in which the surface portion moves to provide a convex or planar surface in place of the projection receiving portion. The surface portion may be configured to move to the first position when the leading-edge slat is in a retracted position and is configured to move to the second position when the leading-edge slat is in an extended position.
