Wing for an aircraft

A wing for an aircraft, comprising:

• a fixed wing,
• a foldable wing tip portion mounted to the fixed wing via a hinge rotatable about a hinge axis between an extended position and a folded position, and
• a flight latch device for latching the foldable wing tip portion in the extended position,
• wherein the flight latch device comprises a housing mounted to one of the fixed wing and the foldable wing tip portion, a latch bolt supported at the housing and linearly movable relative to the housing between a latched position and an unlatched position, and a motor for driving the latch bolt between the latched and unlatched positions,
• wherein the flight latch device comprises a threaded shaft having an external thread and being rotationally driven by the motor,
• the flight latch device comprises a nut having an internal thread engaging the external thread of the shaft, so that the nut can rotate relative to the shaft along the external thread,
• the nut is connected to the housing via a linear guide allowing linear movement and inhibiting rotation of the nut relative to the housing, the nut is connected to the latch bolt for common linear movement with the latch bolt, and
• the flight latch device comprises an offset compensation, wherein the shaft is supported pivotable relative to the housing and the latch bolt is coupled to the nut via a compensational bearing allowing angular play between the nut and the latch bolt.
