A flap arrangement for a wing of an aircraft includes a base member, at least one first flap, at least one second flap and at least one connecting assembly. The first flap is movably supported on the base member and the second flap is movably supported on the first flap. The connecting assembly is mechanically coupled with the base member and the second flap and is designed to move the second flap relative to the first flap when the first flap is moved relative to the base member. Due to the resulting forced guiding of a second flap relative to a first flap a separate actuator for moving the second flap and linkages extending outside of the shape defining contour of the flap arrangement may substantially be eliminated.
