Abstract

1393696 Aircraft wing F SCHOFFMANN 27 July 1972 35200/72 Heading B7W An aircraft wing has a convex top surface 16 and a concave bottom surface 17, both surfaces extending upwardly away from the leading edge when the wing is in a position with zero-angle of attack, the top surface including a substantially vertical portion 18 forming an acute angle with the bottom surface and providing a flat leading edge. The surfaces 16, 17 are formed of thin plastics material over a plurality of resilient blades 11 arranged in a fan-like configuration and mounted to a beam 4 which with leading edge beam 2 and beam 3 forms a triangular spar 1 stiffened by a rigid cover 20 and pivotally mounted in a fork 10 rotatably mounted on the aircraft fuselage. The wing is particularly for a man-powered aircraft, such as an ornithopter.
