Abstract
An aircraft, which has a respective arrangement of flow-influencing devices in at least one surface segment of each wing extending in the wingspan direction in order to influence the fluid flow over the surface segment, and of flow condition sensor devices for measuring the flow condition on the respective segment, and a flight control device, wherein the flight control device has a flow-influencing target parameter setting device connected with the arrangement of flow-influencing devices for generating target parameters for the flow-influencing devices of the at least one surface segment, wherein the flow-influencing devices are designed in such a way as to use the target parameters to change the local lift coefficients or correlations between the drag and lift coefficients in the segment where respectively located.
