Talk:Forward-swept wing

message: I'm going to add the Rutan Boomerang to the article, as it is a forward-swept wing aircraft. However, due to its nature as a one-off prototype, I'll leave the order of production of civilian forward-swept aircraft as it is. AniRaptor2001 (talk) 21:17, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

message: The information in the top summary about "Increased maneuverability, due to airflow from wing tip to wing root preventing a stall of the wing tips and ailerons at high angle of attack. Instead, stall will rather occur in the region of the wing root on a forward-swept wing." is not entirely correct.  Yes spanwise flow does go from tip to root, but the wingtip twists to a higher angle of attack than the wing root for conventional forward-swept wings.  Higher angle of attack at the tip increases overall lift for the wing and the effectiveness of ailerons or other control surfaces on the wing.  The higher lift and control surface effectiveness gives the plane most of its increased maneuverability.  This section of the article should probably be reworded.

message: What about Viktor Belyayev works? Of course, he worked with slightly swept wings, but he started it before Germans. See Belyayev DB-LK and other. I think, it must be mentioned.Ходок (talk) 17:20, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I added the DB-LK and the planned Babochka, even though they have backwards-swept tips, on the basis that their tips are not large enough to make them M-wing configurations. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 18:09, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

message: I have done a major rewrite, breaking up the sections in a different way and adding loads of stuff. If you don't like it, there is an [undo] link in the article history, specially for you. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 18:12, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The sentence on yaw instability is not as clear as it might be.  Perhaps a tweak would help? Arrivisto (talk) 12:47, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Major rewrite 

message: Reading this article gives a good idea of problems with forward swept wings, and mitigating technologies and strategies, but the section on advantages is quite small and buried in the wing characteristics section. A section with a more thorough treatment on that would be helpful
