i think i know what you are talking about. when i first set up my fsx i had the wings looking funny on my 747 also. it turns out that there is an animation that causes this because the wing is so big and flexible. there is a way to turn it off but i forget how i did it, because i don't fly the heavies hardly ever.

Well I just brought from Abucus the A380-900 and got this, I think the same problem, I dont think I buy from them again the whole thing looks a bit rushed.

Hi I believe this is a graphic card issue as they where many posts on this sujuct when FSX first came out. I think this is a problem with older cards, do you have the latest drivers installed.
What card do you have?
I do not like Abucus planes as i find them to be poor quality and basic, i bought the B787 dream liner and it is crap

That's right, I remember several folks having the same problem. I've managed to find one of those old posts -- it appears that the issue is not the graphics card itself but the settings:

...Advanced Animations? 🤔
