A device for monitoring tiltable flaps on aircraft wings including rotary sensors at the rotary axis of the flap and associated with each actuating element. A rotation sensor is connected to the actuating elements by a spring band. The band is a coupled for angle transmission and the band is connected at a distance from the rotary axis. The spring band is stiff in the direction of rotation, while in the lateral direction, for the purpose of compensating for transverse movements of the actuating elements, the spring band is soft. For each flap, the signals of the rotary sensors, at decentralized monitoring devices to locate errors, are transmitted to an evaluation unit.
