Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a functionally improved fairing arrangement (26) for a high-lift mechanism (20) of an aircraft (10). 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 connecting the wing side fairing (36) movably to the wing (12) such that the wing side fairing (36) is rotatable around an axis (39) directed at least partially in a vertical direction.
