Abstract
A flap of an aircraft includes a flap body that is provided deployably with respect to a main wing, an inclined portion that protrudes from an upper surface of a tip part on at least an outboard side in a span direction of the flap body and is inclined with respect to an aircraft axis direction, and a protruding portion that smoothly protrudes from a lower surface of the tip part on at least the outboard side. A rear end of the inclined portion is located closer to a side end edge of the tip part in the span direction of the flap body than a virtual line that passes through a front end of the inclined portion and is parallel to the aircraft axis direction.
