I love variable-geometry wings... It's one of those really awesome feature, that evetually gets replaced by more efficient, but less interesting technology...
Anyone remember the jet featured in Tintin's Flight 714? It was simply called Golf-Tango-Fox in the comic, but it was really cool, and had variable sweep wings... come to think of it, this feature would go really well in a new generation of supersonic private jets:

You can always fly that one in Flightgear if you want
