Difference between Spoiler (aeronautics) and Wing

Spoiler (aeronautics) vs. Wing

In aeronautics, a spoiler (sometimes called a lift spoiler or lift dumper) is a device intended to intentionally reduce the lift component of an airfoil in a controlled way. A wing is a type of fin that produces lift, while moving through air or some other fluid.

Similarities between Spoiler (aeronautics) and Wing

Spoiler (aeronautics) and Wing have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Aileron, Airfoil, Lift (force), Stall (fluid mechanics).

Aileron

An aileron (French for "little wing" or "fin") is a hinged flight control surface usually forming part of the trailing edge of each wing of a fixed-wing aircraft.
