Description: Wing Helper is an incredible model airplane wing design tool, speeding the design process to create your flying ...

Plane wings are traditionally strong, thick and sturdy but a team of researchers led by NASA has created a flexible wing that morphs as it flies. Measuring 14 feet or four meters wide, the new ...

In this interactive feature, see how an airplane's lift and drag are affected by the wing's airfoil shape - its shape as seen in a cross-sectional view between the wing's leading and trailing edges.

That translates into 200–500 kilograms per wing, potentially saving each plane between 40 and 200 tonnes of fuel per year, say the authors.
