A wing of an aircraft that includes a wing leading edge, a wing trailing edge, and a wing surface defined by a wing upper surface and a wing lower surface is described herein. The wing extends from the wing root to the wingtip, and the wingtip has a wingtip chord. A winglet extends from the wingtip and has a winglet leading edge, a winglet trailing edge, a winglet inboard surface, a winglet outboard surface, a winglet root having a winglet root chord, and a winglet tip. A flow fence is disposed on the wing surface inboard from the winglet and overlapping with the winglet. The flow fence is adapted to delay and/or prevent airflow separation on the winglet inboard surface at high angle of sideslip, increasing lateral stability and linearizing aircraft behavior at high angle of sideslip.
