A folding wing is a wing configuration design feature of aircraft to save space and is typical of carrier-based aircraft that operate from the limited deck space of aircraft carriers. The folding allows the aircraft to occupy less space in a confined hangar because the folded wing normally rises over the fuselage decreasing the floor area of ...
The aircraft is a single place, single engine gull-wing design with retractable conventional landing gear. The F4U was the second completed aircraft in the W.A.R. series, with the first example displayed at the EAA airshow in 1975. The aircraft featured folding wings. [3]
The SA-11A is a single engine, side-by-side configuration seating, tricycle gear, strut-braced, low wing monoplane. The fuselage is welded steel tubing with aircraft fabric covering . [ 2 ] The wings have a quick release mechanism that allows them to fold and lock alongside the fuselage in 15–30 seconds.
The SA-5 is a mid-wing, tricycle landing gear design with folding wings. The aircraft was intended to be towed by a vehicle by the (lowered) tail on its main gear with wings folded along its sides. The cockpit can be open, or covered with a bubble canopy. The fuselage is constructed from welded steel tubing with aircraft fabric covering.
The F11 features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit that is 40 in (102 cm) wide, fixed conventional landing gear, or optionally tricycle landing gear, and a single engine in tractor configuration. [1] The aircraft is made from wood, with its flying surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric.
The aircraft is made from metal tubing, with its flying surfaces and fuselage covered doped aircraft fabric. Its 30.00 ft (9.1 m) span wing features Junkers flaperons, has a wing area of 124.5 sq ft (11.57 m 2) and is supported by "V" struts with jury struts. The plans specify standard hydraulic brakes, a steerable tailwheel and wings that fold ...
The Tuholer is a tandem two-seat, strut-braced, low-wing, open cockpit aircraft with conventional landing gear. The dual control aircraft can be flown solo from the rear cockpit only. The fuselage is welded steel tubing with wooden stringers and fabric covering. [3] The dual wing spars are wood, with wood ribs and fabric covering.
The T-40 was designed to be a simple to build, all wood aircraft with folding wings. The prototype was modified several times from a single-seat aircraft to a two-place. It also was modified with a bubble canopy and for one flight only, canard control surfaces. [3] The T-40 has conventional landing gear.
