Abstract:
Wing assemblies (100) comprise one or more wing support structures (24), an inboard-most flap (32), one or more flap supports (28) that operatively couple the inboard-most flap (32) to the one or more wing support structures (24), and one or more flap actuators (31) configured to operatively move the inboard-most flap (32) relative to the one or more flap supports (28). The flap support(s) (28) comprise at least an inboard-most inboard-flap support (106), the flap actuator(s) (31) comprise at least an inboard-most inboard-flap actuator (108) that is outboard of the inboard edge (102) of the inboard-most flap (32), and the inboard-most inboard-flap actuator (108) is spaced-away from the inboard-most inboard-flap support (106).
