- With no wing-mounted engines, leading-edge devices (Krueger, or hinged, flaps on the inner wing and extendable leading edge slats out to the wingtip) and trailing-edge lift enhancement equipment (triple-slotted, Fowler flaps) could be used on the entire wing.

In the end, all three agreed on a tri-engine plane. When Boeing engineers designed the plane, they took the following factors into consideration: 1. It had to be able to fly in and out of airports with small runways. 2. It needed to make steep approaches and climb-outs to avoid structures near the airport. 3. It needed to be able to operate from ai...
Because of its large wing area and 40-degree flaps, something Boeing refers to as flaps positions rather than degrees, the Boeing 727was stable at very low speeds compared to other early jets. The 727 had some downsides, which made the plane complex for pilots to fly when repositioning from other aircraft types. Like all T-tail planes, the 727 coul...
When the Boeing 727 entered commercial service in 1964, it brought jet flights to communities that previously had none, and so it quickly became popular with the flying public. However, that changed some months later following four accidents. In August 1965, United Air Lines Flight 389 plunged into Lake Michiganwhile descending for landing at Chica...

Jan 18, 2022 · use of flaps should be confined to the normal low altitude funJtion. While you are about it, do try to stay within the speed limitations; flight recorder results show far too many occasions on which the flap speeds have been exceeded, in some cases by large margins.
Using full flaps on the Boeing 727 during landing requires care, as they can incur unrecoverable sink rates. The landing technique for the 727 can feel alien to pilots transitioning from other types. The Boeing trijet lands better when the pilot pushes the nose gently into the flare.
