No, but the wings have little flaps that do to control the aircraft from going up and down.
the wings do go up and down with the plane but otherwise, no.

Do airplanes move their wings?
Some do. A few high performance jet aircraft have a movable wing, called a "swing wing" At low speeds the wing is straight out, but at high speeds the wings fold back. A helicopter is an airplane- a "rotary wing" aircraft. The rotor is not a propeller, but wings that are moved through the air. The wings of regular aircraft also move some- they flex up and down as loads change.
How far does aircraft wing lift up when in flight compared to at a standstill?
I presume you are asking about wing flexing. It has been said that on a 747 the wings may flex enough that the wingtips move a full three feet in either direction.
Move the head up and down?

How do you call it when you move your legs up and down?

How is a blue jay bird born?
They move it up and down, causing the air to create lift and thrust. Before they move their wings up, they adjust the wings to make it go down a little, then when move their wings down, they adjust them to make go up which creates lift.
How does a Monarch Butterfly move?
by moving their wings up and down dumbo
How is it possible that military aircraft are able to fly upside down while the normal commercial aircraft can't?
Well, it is actually possible for a commercial aircraft to fly upside down or do a barrel roll.But the only problem is, when it tries 2 regain its normal position, due 2 it enoromous weight, the wings will shear 'tear' off.now U don't wanna fly an aircraft without wings @ 480 feet up in the air. That's a Bad Move :)
How does a aeroplane move?
Elevators control the pitch (up and down) of the aircraft. Ailerons control the roll of the aircraft. And rudders control the yaw of the aircraft.
How does the queen alexandras birdwing butterfly move?
it moves its wings up and down
How does a eagle move?
An eagle uses its wings to move and fly as most birds do. The wings move up and down in order for air to flow through them and allow the eagle to move forward through the air.
What is the controlling surface that regulates an aircraft roll?
At the outer ends of the wings are 'ailerons'. These are like flaps, but when one goes up, the other goes down, thus the aircraft rolls.
What Ship or aircraft movement involving deviating horizontally called?
Airplanes use three axis to describe movement in the 3 planes as follows: Pitch - Front moves up or down. Yaw - Front moves left or right. Roll - Wings move up and down as the aircraft/ship rotates along it main axis. I think your Answer is: Roll. actually the answer is Yawing
Do butterfly fly with their wings to move?
Yes, they move them constantly up and down at a supremely fast rate to stay in flight.
How does monarch butterfly move?
using its wings =D its wings press against the air which cause them to go down and up... basic physics ;)
