Hello together,

I agree with Pilotflying. The supporting surface is that of an aircraft of the A320 or A321.

The enclosed area is the outer end rib of the outboard flap. The projecting edge which can be seen at the flap end is part of the flap bearing within the wing structure. Doesn’t look beautiful, but it is necessary for the flap to find the wing again after the start.
The dark surfaces at the other end are sealing surfaces which close with the surface of the flap.
I can’t see a defect here.

No, that’s not normal, there seems to have been a broken piece during the flight.

What kind of airline was that?

I just read Lufthansa. O

Was there hail or bird stroke?

In any case, report to Lufthansa & at Fraport or the Authority.

if that happens in other places, that’s bad. What if this falls during the flight and meets someone?

You can also be beaten by lightning or a meteor, but the chance is extremely low.

a catastrophe / a crash will not happen, but if material fatigue has broken out, it can also happen in other places.

Contrary to the answers here, the small “nase” on the landing flap at the A321 is completely normal, which can be found on every picture of the supporting surface:

According to flightaware, the route is served only with the A321. What would also fit as the 737 has a different landing flap configuration: comment image

It’s not 737, it’s a plane from the A320 family. In addition, this is the flaps and not the flaps.

You don’t have to tell a pilot. I know what the wing of an A320 and a 737 looks like. At Lufthansa, there’s not much going on with 737!
