| Sep 15, 2015 at 11:12 | comment | added | ROIMaison | Or are asking about the taper of wings? | |
| Sep 15, 2015 at 8:12 | comment | added | Marco Sanfilippo | Just to be sure: you're asking why the wing is swept back (then you already got the answer) or why the leading edge and the trailing edge are not parallel? | |
