ABSTRACT:
An airplane includes a wing having the configuration of an equilateral triangle and covered with a flexible membrane which is provided with free trailing edges. The wing is secured by pivot brackets to the top of supports placed at the center of gravity of the airplane body as to pivot right and left alternatively to obtain a self-balancing of flight like the action of a flying kite, such that it is safe and easy to control the airplane during takeoff, landing and sustained flight while increasing the lifting force.
