I am looking for some resources on choosing or even just proven examples to copy of wing and external flap airfoils that work well together. I am not talking about flaperons that also act as control surfaces, just flaps like on the Miles Messenger.
I found an old NACA report in which both were NACA 23102 but I suspect that was just for convenience, I am looking for recommended combinations.
I would also welcome suggestions of good design references specifically on external airfoil flaps beyond just airfoil choice: relative chord and thickness, positioning, range of movement, etc.
Cheers,
Matthew
