Some aerospace designers believe that Mr. Lance Winslow’s design modification of current day fighter aircraft and UAVs to include an inflatable and expandable wing is not feasible or desirable. There critique includes many points, three of these points are worthy of addressing, while the rest of their debate and critique are irrelevant and in fact show their lack of understanding of Mr. Lance Winslow’s excellent concept.

These critics believe that inflatable expandable wings will:

1.) Need for Larger cavity for wing while retracted.

2.) Be like other models of aircraft with retracting wings, which did not work.

3.) Have a loss of use of fuselage cavity for other components and fuel

In addressing the design critique in these items we will show that they major factors to be associated with our concept:

It is my contention that the wing when not in use would be deflated and take up little space and fit into the end cap, which would resemble a stub sticking out of the fuselage. The stub would also serve as the leading edge and spar when expanded and have the same camber as an end cap as it would when acting as the leading edge. In essence taking up no additional space in the fuselage area such as other models such as the “Roll-Wing” concept. The roll wing concept another attempt at a similar design, which was used as an example by the gentleman of, which attempted the same goals.

We believe that as our concept would have an inflatable wing in the end
