    Hawker 800 Wing Oscillation (Language)

    Found this video of a Hawker 800's wing oscillating...anyone want to hazard a guess as to what the actual cause is? My guess is it has something to do with the winglets...

    Have you ever seen a grown man naked?

    I don't see the problem. I see birds do that all the time.

    That's a funky winglet.

    Aren't the non-winglet versions also prone to this, too?

    that's what I thought I read...I wonder if it's aileron flutter? It seems like it's pretty uniform in both wings though from what the video shows.
