Now you will spend the rest of your lifetime imagine what type of wingtip would be most suitable for a bird.

Next time you’re watching a bird that likes to glide a lot, such as an eagle, have a look at how long their wing tip feathers are. They tend the curve upwards in flight and act in much the same way as winglets on aircraft.
