Abstract:
1. Trailing edge of an aircraft stabilizer surface, where said surface is manufactured of a composite material and comprises an upper cladding and a lower cladding that are connected by a connecting clip on said trailing edge, wherein the connecting clip has a U-shaped profile with at least one recess at each end used for coupling to the inner surfaces of the upper and lower claddings of the stabilizer surface, such that the connecting clip is flexible enough to be pinched so that its ends have clearance with respect to the gap between the upper and lower claddings whereby the clip will be housed, by means of these recesses, between the upper and lower claddings of the aircraft stabilizer surface, whereby the outer zone of the stabilizer surface, on its trailing edge, forms a continuous aerodynamic surface without changes of gradient and wherein the connection of the clip to the upper and lower claddings, in their inner zone, is made with riveted joints.
