Science News, March 3, 2007 by Paul Baker
I haven't seen any reference to the similarity between the "morphing" wing ("Ahead of the Curve: Novel morphing wing may reduce aircraft's fuel use," SN: 12/23&30/06, p. 406) and the "warping" wing that the Wright brothers used on their gliders and powered aircraft. It seems we've come full circle in our quest to emulate the flight of birds.
