Commercial aircraft wings are crucial aerodynamic structures that generate lift, enabling the aircraft to remain airborne. They are typically constructed from lightweight yet durable materials such as aluminum or composite materials to maintain an optimal balance between strength and weight. Designed to enhance airflow and ensure stability, these wings often incorporate fuel tanks, hydraulic systems, and landing gear components.

The primary types of commercial aircraft wings include swept-back wings, delta wings, straight wings, and others. A swept-back wing features a leading edge that angles backward from the aircraft's fuselage, making it suitable for various aircraft types, including narrow-body and wide-body planes. These wings serve different end users, including passenger aircraft, corporate jets, freighters, and more.
