A rotary device assembly is provided and includes an input shaft coupled to a torque generating device, an output shaft and a rotary device disposed to transmit first torque from the input shaft to the output shaft and configured with no-back capability to prevent second torque applied to the output shaft from being transmitted to the input shaft in an event the second torque deceeds a torque-limiting threshold and the no-back capability and torsional lock-up capability to prevent an overload of the torque generating device in an event the second torque exceeds the torque-limiting threshold.

The present invention provides an extreme STOL airplane comprising: a fuselage and a wing having port and starboard wing sections. Each wing section has a body with top and bottom surfaces, leading and trailing edges, and a span, i.e., the distance between a wing section tip and root connected to the fuselage, and flap coves. Aerodynamic elements integrated into the wing sections include Fowler flaps, having leading and trailing edges and a span, flap tracks, wherein the flap tracks are external to the wing section body, extend aftward beyond the trailing edge of the wing section, and are configured to enable the Fowler flaps to rotate or deflect and to translate or extend and retract, Frise ailerons, wherein the Frise ailerons are located outboard of the Fowler flaps, and spoilerons located over the leading edge of the Fowler flaps when the flaps are in the fully extended position.
