Abstract

The invention discloses a braking flap which can be set to have an angle corresponding to the airflow flowing around a plane in order to reduce speed of planes. The braking flap (20) comprises a free edge (21) which is separated from an outer skin set with angle and generates edge vortex in airflow flowing around the plane. According to the invention, the free edge (21) comprises a plurality of independent edge sections (22) dividing the edge vortex into a plurality of vortexes.
