What is wing twist?
Wing twist is the change of the angle of incidence of the airfoil, along the span of the wing. This is also called wash out if the wing tip has a smaller or negative angle compared to the wing root, or wash in if the wing tip angle is bigger. Wash out is added to wings to ensure the wing tip stalls first, which makes flying behaviour more predictable and low-speed flight more controllable. For a similar reason, wing tips usually have a shorter airfoil chord than wing roots.
