Did you know that the wings of a modern commercial jetliner are designed to flex significantly during flight? In fact, a Boeing 787's wings can bend up to nearly 25 feet without compromising structural integrity! This flexibility helps to absorb turbulence and reduces stress on the aircraft. Next time you fly, look out the window and you'll notice this subtle but critical aspect of engineering. What's an interesting fact or insight you have about aviation? Share it with us!
