Abstract
A leading-edge slat for an aircraft is proposed, which includes a front skin), a back skin, a spar and an air inlet for receiving air at an elevated temperature for de-icing or anti-icing. In the slat, at least one air chamber is created, which is supplied with said air. A first portion of the back skin is attached to the spar at a distance to the bottom section, wherein a second portion of the back skin is attached to the top section. Thereby, a region in front of the fixed leading edge is created, into which air from air outlets integrated into the back skin can be exhausted outside of the slat.
