An airfoil for flow control is disclosed having an outer skin in contact with an ambient air flow, wherein the outer skin extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge with two opposite lateral sides, and surrounds an interior space. The outer skin comprises a porous section in the area of the leading edge, a pressure chamber arranged in the interior space and fluidly connected to the porous section, an air inlet fluidly connected to the pressure chamber, and an air outlet fluidly connected to the pressure chamber.
