The present disclosure provides an aircraft (10) for flying in a forward direction (F). The aircraft (10) comprises an aircraft body (20), and a wing comprising a first wing portion (30A) and a second wing portion (30B). The first wing portion (30A) and the second wing portion (30B) extend away from the aircraft body (20). The first wing portion (30A) and the second wing portion (30B) are configured to generate a first lift value during level flight of the aircraft (10) in the forward direction (F) when the first wing portion (30A) and the second wing portion (30B) are in an equilibrium position. Each of the first wing portion (30A) and the second wing portion (30B) is flexibly mounted relative to the aircraft body (20) such that when a lift force generated by the first wing portion (30A) changes from the first lift value to a second lift value, the first wing portion (30A) is deflected substantially vertically away from an equilibrium position. The aircraft (10) is configured to provide a further force to the first wing portion (30A) to substantially prevent further deflection of the first wing portion (30A) away from the equilibrium position.
