Abstract

A actuator arrangement is disclosed in which the high-lift device support that supports and guides movement of a high-lift device, such as a flap, is in axial alignment with a control actuator assembly that controls one or more control surfaces. This allows a single support fairing to be sufficient for covering both the track member and the control actuator assembly and allowing for reduced drag and weight.
