A wing, having an adjustable flap that can be moved between a retracted and an extended setting is provided, as well as a gap-covering device, with an adjustment lever and a gap-covering flap arranged on the latter with a flow surface. The adjustment lever with the gap-covering flap is pre-loaded by means of a pre-loading device into a first setting, in which the gap-covering flap is located in the interior of the wing. The adjustable flap and the adjustment lever with the gap-covering flap are mechanically coupled such that as the adjustable flap moves into its retracted setting, a movement of the adjustment lever takes place against the pre-load effected by the pre-loading device, into a second setting. The flow surface of the gap-covering flap in the second setting of the adjustment lever runs between the upper side of the retracted adjustable flap and the wing flow surface.
