| Bar-tailed Godwit |
The Lockheed Stratoliner concept features the wings of the bar-tailed godwit. The godwit holds the record for the longest known non-stop flight by a bird without feeding at 11,680km.
UK designer William Brown believes the oversized wings will generate large amounts of lift and allow the plane to fly at higher altitudes, with less resistance.
