Remarks
A leadingEdgeDevice (LED) is defined via its outerShape relative to the componentSegment. The WingCutOut defines the area of the skin that is removed by the LED. Structure is similar to the wing structure. The mechanical links between the LED and the parent are defined in tracks. The deflection path is described in path. Additional actuators, that are not included into a track, can be defined in actuators.Leading and trailing edge are defined by the outer shape of the wing segments, i.e. the trailing edge of a trailingEdgeDevice is the trailing edge of the wing. This is also valid for kinks that are present in the wing but not explicitly modeled in the control surface.
