> Am I correct when I say : > Slat are in front of the wing,
Yes. Actually, if it slides forward then it is called a slat. If it rotates down from a hinge it is called a "leading edge flap". Together they are sometimes called "leading edge devices" or LED. > Speedbrakes are on the top of the wing ( the extrados ? ) and can be used > flying. Yes. Sometimes they are called "spoilers", and it isn't always clear. Sometimes, if they are on top of the wing, they are called both at the same time. > Reverse are small doors on the engine nacelle that open once the > plane is landed and try to stop before the end of the runway. Yes. The part of the engine cowling that moves backwards is often called a reverser "sleeve".
