took a nap and dreamt that Jerma was doing “The Sandstorm Stream”, which was apparently some long awaited hyped up stream, where he went to CANADA of all places and just, stood around in a sandstorm?? there were a ton of ppl there and it lasted for several hours, but the entire time chat was spamming nothing but variations of “SANDY ANDY OMEGALUL” while Jerma occasionally preformed bits (though he was just standing there motionless for a majority of the stream)
I have expanded the traditional 4 types; Highspeed, Elliptical, Low Aspect and High Aspect ratio, because they were very narrow and vague categories for the most part, adding High Energy, Thermal Soaring, Night Glider, and Passerine wings. I feel that these extra types make it easier to understand and visualize the differences and similarities between wing shapes.
I’ve renamed Low Aspect to Powered Soaring, and High Aspect to Dynamic Soaring for the purposes of the fact that names made it hard to understand purpose and were easily confusable.
A lot of these wing types are also affected by tailfeather shape and size, and that will change their agility and energy expenditure as the tail also generates lift.
