What is a Fixed Wing Airplane?
A fixed-wing aircraft is an aircraft which has wings that are attached to the aircraft and do not move. The term is used to differentiate airplanes from other types of flying vehicles such as lifting-body aircraft (balloons and blimps) or rotary aircraft such as helicopters and auto gyros. All airplanes are considered fixed-wing aircraft and even swing-wing or otherwise moving-wing airplanes are usually referred to as being in the fixed-wing category of aircraft.

Thin airfoil delta wing. Answer: There is no "best" configuration. It depends on what the aircraft is required to do.

Each of these have a wing designed to be "best" for the operations that the aircraft is required to perform.
