		The ailerons - the wing's control surfaces - remain effective at the highest angles of attack, and controllability of the aircraft is retained even in the event of airflow separating from the remainder of the wings' surface.
		The wing panels of the Su-47 are constructed of nearly 90% composites.
		The leading-edge root extensions blend smoothly to the wing panels, which are fitted with deflectable slats on the leading edge; flaps and ailerons on the trailing edge.

		However, the wings of a 757 are swept back at an angle of 29 degrees, as made by the leading edge with a line at right angles to the roll axis of the aircraft.
		The simplest answer is that the left wing was exposed to fire only near the wing root, the more distal portions being completely beyond the reach of flames or heat sufficient to melt the aluminum, let alone to burn it.
		Clearly, no other portion of the wing could have been in contact with the Pentagon wall at that moment and the entire weight of the wing still, traveling at 500-plus miles per hour, would have produced a bending force that was entirely concentrated on the point of contact of the wing with the support column.

	Defending the Motherline
		Wing chun (Cantonese, wing chun; Mandarin, yong chun) is a southern Chinese martial art that has been spreading in the British Commonwealth, the United States and parts of Continental Europe and Asia.
		The structure of wing chun as a way to truth uses the practice of self-defense as a search for wisdom.2 The conquest of fear is part of the journey of liberation and understanding the Self is a key to its defense.
		The orientation toward the integrity of the motherline and its axis is a singular characteristic of the art of wing chun.

	Boeing 2707
		The first Boeing SST design, known as the Boeing 733, had a configuration with a swing-wing[?] and four General Electric engines mounted underneath the wing roots - similar to the B-1 Lancer except that the four engines were mounted in four individual nacelles.
		When the wings were in their swept-back position they merged with the tailplane to give a delta-wing planform.
		They were forced to abandon the swing-wing design in favour of a delta wing design, like that used by the Lockheed design they had beaten.

	Misconceptions of Wing Chun
		If the mythical Yim Wing Chun invented Wing Chun, and then later on passed it to her husband, who later took it to the Red Boats, this places the time frame again in the 1800's, creating a problem with the time frame in question.
		When Wing Chun left the Temple, most of the people learning it were not doing so for the purpose of cultivating the heart or nourishing their nature.
		Wing Chun was created in the Southern Shaolin Temple where it filtered to the Red Boat Opera through the Secret Societies, more than a century after it left the Southern Shaolin Temple.

	WING CONSTRUCTION FOR VACUUM TECHNIQUE
		The idea of wing bagging is to lay-up fibre glass and or carbon fibre or Kevlar™ on painted shiny plastic sheet with epoxy resin and then transfer this skin to extruded foam wing cores using a vacuum bag.
		I finally glue the oversize K and S brass wing dowel tube in place, through both root assemblies, with epoxy, remove the card insert and then finally run it through the bandsaw to separate the two halves (that's what the card spacer was for).
		With our wing now with one skin on the upper surface the next step is to sand the second spar cap groove in the lower surface of the wing using your home-made sanding block and then cutting a slot for the shear web.

	Wing Chun Roots - Kung Fu Magazine Forums
		Wing Chun wasn't thought up in a vacuum so it is very likely that ideas were borrowed from other arts and some of those arts were animal styles.
		Perhaps Wing Chun didn't originate from snake and crane fighting but there is still a lot of overlap between these systems depending on how you look at it.
		What kind of Wing Chun is it?" It was similar enough that I assumed it was a family of WCK that I had never seen...maybe Yik Kam or something else.

		He improved stability by setting the wings at a dihedral angle, by which the tips of the wings are higher than the wing roots and form a flat Vee.
		He calculated the size a wing must be to sustain the weight of an object - such as a human object.
		The intent was not to imitate the wings of a bird but to clearly understand and adapt their functionality.

	Arado Ar E.555 series Luft '46 entry
		Since the requirements were high speed, a bomb load of at least 4000 kg (8818 lbs) and a range of 5000 km (3107 miles), it was realized that the project could best be fulfilled by using a flying wing design with a laminar high speed profile.
		The Arado Ar E.555-1 was constructed entirely of metal (both steel and Duraluminum), and was basically a flying wing with a short, circular cross section forward fuselage where the pressurized cockpit was located.
		The main landing gear undercarriage consisted of two tandem, dual wheeled units that retracted inwards into the wing, and the front landing gear was a single, dual wheeled unit that retracted to the rear to lie beneath the cockpit.

		The aerodynamic design of the wing was conventional except for the use of 20° of sweepback.
		This arrangement is somewhat similar to that employed on the Comet; however, the nacelles are larger and the circular inlets extend forward of the leading edge of the wing, as contrasted with the leading-edge inlets on the Comet.
		The sweepback angle of the aspect ratio 6.5 wing is 40° from the root to about the midsemispan position and is 37.5° from there to the tip.

	Is it possible for aircraft with variable wing geometry (swing wing) to become full variable wing geometry (able to ...
		Wingtips, the thickness and curve of the wings, flight controls and high-lift devices are all designed to maximise their effectiveness in a certain profile.
		So if a wing was mounted in the very centre of an aircraft, but swept back 45 degrees, the 'centre of lift' would act at a point halfway between the front and rear of the wing.
		If you were to invert the sweep of wings (by swinging from rear to front) you would greatly disturb the centre of lift and centre of gravity of the aircraft to the point where it would become unflyable.

	History of the Style Practiced At The Canberra Wing Chun Kung Fu Academy
		Wing Chun is not based on animal movements as many other styles of Chinese kungfu, nor does it demand extraordinary physical abilities such as some Northern China Kung Fu styles.
		Due to this unique characteristic of Wing Chun, there are many variations and styles of this art today and each could claim their own roots and history.
		Various stories about the origins of Wing Chun are usually based on legends, which could have been obscured by the original tellers for political reasons of that time and further distorted by translations between different dialects of Southern China.

		The upper wings and horizontal tail surfaces are relief etched to portray the control surfaces.
		The upper wings of the Ro.43 were connected to the upper forward fuselage in a slight gull wing design, so the roots of the upper wing stainless steel parts will need to be very slightly bent downwards to replicate this feature.
		At 1:700 scale it is not really necessary to bend the upper wing roots for the gull wing base but purists will probably want to do so.

		The first S-37 photographs show that the stabilizer are highly swept (ca 70 deg) and their leading edges appear to extend aft from the wing roots of FSW.
		This is very different from X-29A strakes which were extensions of the wing roots themselfs ending with a trailing edge flaps.
		The forward swept wing, a conformal underfuselage weapon station(s), use of RAM and the inward-canted tailfins, suggest a further reduction of the aircraft radar signature down from similarly sized Flanker's 3-5 sq m.

		The wing roots matched perfectly, and the wing joiner didn't require any shaping or sanding; consequently, joining the wing halves was the easiest job in the entire assembly process, and the best match I have ever seen on an ARF.

	3D swept forward wing????
		The biggest advantage would, I suspect, be gained from the fact that the air over the wings tends to flow inwards, towards the wing roots...essentially eliminating the possibility of a tip stall, thus allowing extremely high AOA flight, as you mentioned.
		The tail's stability contribution is positive, and overrides the negative stability of the wing.
		Whether the wing is swept forward or backward or not at all, some arrangement of CG and tail volume will provide a positive static margin, and allow it to be flown without computers.
