Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method of collecting information relating to a movable airfoil surface (10) of an aircraft, the method including the step of collecting the information by means of an appropriate sensor placed directly on the airfoil surface. According to the invention, a radio type sensor is used that is placed on the airfoil surface so as to face a structure (1) of the aircraft that supports the airfoil surface and so as to be in contactless radio communication with a radio transceiver (20) disposed on said structure (1), regardless of the position of the airfoil surface relative to the surface, such that the sensor receives by radio from the transceiver the energy required for collecting the information and for returning a signal representative of the information by radio to the transceiver.
