A wing incorporating a wing tip (200) with a curved leading edge (220) and a curved trailing edge (222) to minimize induced drag for a given wing form is disclosed. The curve of the leading and trailing edges (220, 222) of the wing tip (200) may be described generally as parabolic, elliptic, or super elliptic. A finite tip segment may be included with a sweep angle between the end of the curved leading edge (220) and the end of the curved trailing edge (222). The wing tip may also include a spanwise camber. |
