The invention relates to a morphing airfoil leading edge. The airfoil may include a leading edge 200 and a shape control mechanism 400. The leading edge may include a flexible leading edge skin 214 having a first end 216, a second end 218, and an arc length defined therebetween. The shape control mechanism may be attached to the flexible leading edge skin at a plurality of support locations 224 and may transition the flexible leading edge skin from a first shape 228 having a first curvature profile 230 to a second shape 232 having a second curvature profile 234 different than the first curvature profile without a change in the arc length.
