A gaff sail is a fore-and-aft sail with four corners and four edges. The lowest edge is called the foot and is attached to a horizontal spar called a boom. The vertical edge that is attached to the mast is called the luff; the upper edge is called the head and is attached to a spar called a gaff. The remaining edge is the leech. The corner between the luff and the head is called the throat, between the head and the leech is the peak, between the leech and the foot is the clew, and the remaining corner is called the tack. 2, record 3, English, - gaff%20sail

La voile à corne est située en arrière du mât sur lequel elle pivote, ce qui simplifie les virements de bord. Le haut de la voile est envergué sur un espar, appelé pic ou corne, qui se termine par une fourche - l'encornat - permettant l'articulation autour du mât. Le bas de la voile peut être dénué d'espar, (dans ce cas on dit voile à bordure libre), ou solidaire d'une bôme. Bien qu'elles ne soient guère supérieures aux voiles tiers, les voiles à cornes ont la réputation d'être plus faciles à manœuvrer. 2, record 3, French, - voile%20%C3%A0%20corne

The X-wing has emerged from the circulation controlled rotor(CCR) in which a hollow blade of roughly oval aerofoil section, that is, without a real lifting profile at all, can be made to lift effectively by blowing a layer of air through a slot and across the curved Coanda surface which forms the trailing-edge. While this in itself produces lift, the air jet can be so modulated as the rotor turns that it has the same effect as the cyclic pitch changing of the normal rotor. Finally, a further jet can be blown through a second slot near the leading-edge of the blade so that it restores the lost lift of the retreating blade. This fore-and-aft blowing is the key to the stopped-rotor X-wing. 1, record 20, English, - circulation%20controlled%20rotor
