Abstract: A wing for an aircraft, including a main wing, a slat, and a connection assembly movably connecting the slat to the main wing, the slat movable between a retracted and at least one extended position. The connection assembly includes an elongate slat track. A wing has a connection assembly without requiring the front spar being penetrated. The slat track has a first end mounted to the slat and a second end guided at the main wing for movement along a predetermined path extending in a direction from a front spar to a leading edge of the main wing and from a lower side to an upper side of the main wing. Between the first and second ends the slat track is mounted to the main wing allowing translation of the slat track and rotation of the slat track about a first axis of rotation parallel to the leading edge.
