Abstract
Aircraft wing equipped with high-lift flaps and with at least one pylon for suspending an engine. According to the invention, the upper part of the pylon is bent to avoid discontinuity of the wing leading edge between said pylon and the high-lift flaps regardless of whether or not said flaps are in out-spread position. The invention improves aerodynamic performances both in smooth configuration and in high-lift configuration.
