Zusammenfassung:In order to improve aerodynamic properties of an aircraft (10) and reduce drag and weight, the invention proposes an actuator arrangement (20). In this arrangement, the high-lift device support (22) that supports and guides movement of a high-lift device (24), such as a flap, is in axial alignment with a control actuator assembly (46) that controls one or more control surfaces (40). With this a single support fairing (30) is sufficient for covering both the track member (26) and the control actuator assembly (46), thereby allowing for reduced drag and weight.
