Paul---- One thing I read some place (don't ask me where), was to make sure you DO NOT have more flap extension (degrees) than what is still possible to make a go-around if for some reason you couldn't get the flaps to retract and must abort a landing.
i.e. with the flaps at 90 degrees, at full power it might be impossible to gain altitude (go-around). ( I know this is an exaggerated example)--------- That is why : I WILL follow the advise of having the linkage designed so at full actuator extention (travel ) I will have no more that the maximum flap dgrees specified by Chris H.---- (30 degrees)
There has been more than one IFE (in-flight emergency) due to a "run-a-way" actuator.
