ABSTRACT:
A graphite epoxy spoiler for an aircraft wing is manufactured by estimating the shear force to which the spoiler will be subject, and forming a fitting attachment surface and fitting designed to eliminate a separate shear attachment between the spoiler structure and the center attachment/drive fitting. This permits use of a one piece co-cured honeycomb sandwich construction for the spoiler.
