A visitor from Germany posted Tue October 24, 2006: These endings are part of an experimental series aiming to reduce induced drag - these wingtips offer the performance of much longer wings or winglets. Indeed they were inspired by the wingtips of large flying birds - based on the simple observation the albatros or seagull (having the slender wings like high performance sailplanes - are not the biggest (heaviest) birds! Obviously, the heaviest birds (swans, vultures) habe quite short wings, but wingtips ending in separate feathers - giving us a strong hint that the efficiency of this wing type may be superiot to that of wings with huge aspect ratios.- sd
A visitor from Germany posted Tue May 9, 2006: Somebody had a very close look at the wingtips of an eagle. Must have good slowflight capabilities
A visitor from Spain posted Sun May 7, 2006: Maybe they were testing different wing profiles... Anybody has some information?
