An aircraft operable to cruise and maneuver through a range of flight speeds, and having structure for avoiding the stall that is typically associated with aircraft at low flight speeds. The aircraft includes a fuselage extending from a nose end to a tail end along a longitudinal axis; and first and second wings attached to opposing sides of the fuselage, wherein the first and second wings each comprise a main wing section extending from an inboard end to an outboard end along a lateral axis of the aircraft, the inboard end for connecting the main wing section to the fuselage; and at least one wing tip having a proximal end and a distal end, the at least one wing tip being rotatably mounted at the proximal end to the outboard end of the main wing section and arranged to freely autorotate through at least 360 degrees of motion with respect to the main wing section in response to airflow incident on the at least one wing tip about a wing tip rotational center that is aligned in parallel or coaxially aligned with the mean lift line of the wing.
