Couldn't find what's speed limit for combat flaps. So far, happened only once I got them jammed, but to know would be better.

Thank you,
GB

Most of them won't get jammed at any speed but some will, depends on plane. Most planes will only jam on take off flaps or above. Don't know which planes can jam even the combat flaps but there are some planes that it can happen to.

In 10 years I can't say that I recall ever jamming while using the 'combat flaps' position. It would be interesting to know if it's even possible. There's really only one way to find out but I don't have the time to do that. Maybe someone might take up the challenge one day.
