The Roots of the Ring Wing
The concept of a circular wing aircraft is not as new as you might think. Its origins date back to the early days of aviation, with the French pioneering experiments in closed-wing designs. One of the earliest examples was the Bell Riot aircraft, which featured two annular wings in tandem configuration, later evolving into a three-service aircraft. Unfortunately, the Bell Riot's journey was cut short due to damages during initial tests.
