Abstract:
Example actuator assemblies to deploy aircraft leading edge flaps and seals for aircraft leading edge flaps are described herein. An example apparatus includes an aircraft flap that is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The flap includes a top panel. A notch is formed in the top panel and extends into a side of the top panel near a trailing edge of the flap. The example apparatus also includes a seal coupled to the flap. The seal is movable to cover the notch when the flap is in the deployed position.
