Pivoting Wing Could Cut Jet Noise and Fuel Use
NASA Ames researchers proposed an anti symmetrical pivoting wing that rotates about its center to enable quiet takeoffs and efficient cruise. The concept starts with a conventional straight wing for takeoff and, at speed, tilts about 45 degrees to reduce drag and avoid sonic booms up to Mach 1.2 and potentially Mach 1.5 over oceans.
