A primary flight control device for an aircraft, such as a flaperon attached to an aircraft wing, utilizes independent yet interactive airgap control systems designed to avoid weight penalties associated with conventionally used cam and track systems. An actuator directly controls movements of the flaperon; the flaperon motion is then used to slave separate movements of secondary flight control devices, such as a flaperon hinge panel and a cove lip door, to various positions of the flaperon for indirect control of aerodynamic air gaps during flight. The use of a bell crank for indirectly slaving the flaperon hinge panel movements to the flaperon avoids conventionally used cam and track systems. Although the cove lip door utilizes a separate linkage system, the bell crank and cove lip door linkage systems work in conjunction to assure desired aerodynamic airflows over the aircraft wing and flaperon structures.
