The MU-2 and Beechjet do not have spoilerons - Lear 35s and Boeing 727s have spoilerons. They use straight, old-fashioned, honest to goodness spoilers and nothing but spoilers for roll control. They use small trim ailerons for roll trim.bluesky421 said:Yeah, MU-2s and Beechjets use "spoilerons". They are basically small spoilers that extend and retract on the top of the wing.

Don't feel too bad, a lot of people are under that misconception. There are also a few light planes that use spoilerons - the Wren modified Cessna 182 has what are essentially spoilers on the top of the wing that work in conjunction with the stock ailerons.
