Abstract

A functionally improved fairing arrangement (26) for a high-lift mechanism (20) of an aircraft (10) has been described. The high-lift mechanism (20) includes a flap (22) to be arranged at a trailing edge (16) of an aircraft wing (12) and a mounting and guiding mechanism (24) for the flap (26). The fairing arrangement (26) comprises a flap side fairing unit (28) and a wing side fairing unit (30). The flap side fairing unit (28) comprises a flap side fairing (32) for covering an aft part of the mounting and guiding mechanism (24) and a flap side fairing mount (34) for mounting the flap side fairing (32) to the flap (22). The wing side fairing unit (30) comprises a wing side fairing (36) for covering a forward part of the mounting and guiding mechanism (24) and a wing side fairing mount (38) for mounting the wing side fairing (36) to the wing (12). The wing side fairing mount (38) is configured for movably connecting the wing side fairing (36) to the wing (12), preferably such that the wing side fairing (36) is rotatable around an axis (39) directed at least partially in a vertical direction. A fairing joint (80) couples the flap side fairing (32) and the wing side fairing (36) in order to transfer movements of the flap side fairing (32) to the wing side fairing (36). Hence, a lateral or rotational movement of the wing side fairing (36) is controlled by the flap side fairing (32).
