Since the dawn of aviation, birds have been an inspiration for visionaries of flight. And now, engineers are once again looking to feathered friends to inspire the next generation of aircraft wings.

Taking their cues from the birds, Airbus engineers have flown a scale-model airplane that incorporates flapping wing-tips. Based on the structure of the albatross wing, the remote-controlled ...

Airbus is working on a unique airplane design that involves flapping wing tips, something found on military jets but not commercial aircraft. The company successfully tested a remote-controlled ...

The 777X is designed to operate at the very limits of airport infrastructure, wing loading, and aerodynamic efficiency.

Since Leonardo Da Vinci first began observing bird anatomy in the late 1400s, designers have used birds as the inspiration for aircraft design. The science of biomimicry—solving human problems by ...

Airbus engineers have developed a scale-model aeroplane with the first in-flight, flapping wing-tips that could revolutionise aircraft wing-design. The aerospace giant has drawn on nature to develop ...

Wing warping is the twisting, or warping, of plane wings to control the roll of the plane. The Wright brothers first thought of this system and used cables to control the up-and-down movement of their ...
