Abstract

A flap support structure incorporates an auxiliary flap support attachment fitting and an auxiliary flap support track. A primary load pin couples the auxiliary support track to the auxiliary flap support attachment fitting and reacts operating loads on the flap. At least one fuse pin extends through the primary load pin to limit translation of the primary load pin relative to the attachment fitting.
