The Boeing SST design incorporates a variable-geometry wing. Some of the wing-pivot-joint and actuation-system configurations considered during the development of the SST variable-geometry design are discussed herein. In addition, the selected SST design is described, and detailed maintainability and maintenance requirements are reviewed.
