Abstract

Determination of angular relationships of aircraft lift and control surfaces (wings, flaps, ailerons, tail, rudder and canard) are essential to the quality of the final assembly. The identification of dihedral angle, wing setting angle and deflection angle is accomplished by measuring the Wing Reference Plane (WRP). Paper presents advanced mathematical and metrological fundamentals for measuring WRP. The presented method allows the deviation of form and position deviation considered separately for aeronautical surfaces. Developed method successfully applied on several international and domestic projects.
