dc.description.abstract	Control reversal due to deformation of a wing with a partial-span flap and inset aileron is considered theoretically for the particular case of a flap held at the root end. The semi-rigid method is used. An investigation is made for a particular aircraft. The calculated reversal speed is found to be considerably lower than for the straight-forward wing-aileron case. The effect of variation of the degrees of wing and flap constraint is also considered. It is concluded that an increase in reversal speed is best obtained by an increase in flap root stiffness.	en_US
