In tests at transonic speeds a conventional 'subsonic' wing turned at an oblique angle to the flow has demonstrated lift-drag ratios higher than conventional swept-back or delta wings. When returned to its straight position, perpendicular to the flow, such a wing would minimize the display of energy and noise in the airport environment. Following a brief review of theoretical and experimental results, the paper discusses various characteristics of the oblique wing as they relate to aircraft design. Topics covered are lift-drag ratio, flight control and trim and aeroelastic stability. The possibility of an all-wing aircraft for flight at Mach 2 is suggested.
