An aircraft wing (700) includes a fixed structure (102) and a linear hydraulic slat actuator (104) attached to the fixed structure (102). The linear hydraulic slat actuator (104) is oriented spanwise along the aircraft wing (700). The aircraft wing (700) also includes an actuator output link (108) and a slat (710) attached to the actuator output link (108). The aircraft wing (700) also includes a bell-crank (106) coupled to the linear hydraulic slat actuator (104) and to the actuator output link (108). In response to spanwise movement of the linear hydraulic slat actuator (104), the bell-crank (106) is configured to move the actuator output link (108) in a different direction that enables the slat (710) to move between a retracted position and an extended position.
