Do the 777 wings actually flex that much IRL?.....they look almost rubber-y

 

They do.  Take a look at some of the head-on shots from spotters shooting on final.

Amazing. That wing is moving about as much as the Robot's arms from the old Lost in Space tv show. ("DANGER!!....DANGER!!")

I have some 777 wing shots from my recent vacation, but unfortunately I don't have the camera with me to post them.  I do recall some pretty hefty flexing going on though.

Just a quick question regarding the wing flex.

 

In some of the videos of I have from the BETA team it appears that the wing may independently flex. Is this the case? Its natural for the wings to generate different amounts of lift during a flight due to certain circumstances.

 

Can anyone verify this??

[kevinh 409]

Yep!

 

I mean we all fly around constantly looking out the wings right? Peripheral vision anyone?

 

The real question is would you buy it without the wing flex??!!!! 

Well of course I would (mainly because I wouldn't notice if it didn't). But then why wouldn't it have wing flex? It's not exactly a new technique. TBH I'm rather more interested in the new things this 777 has to offer.
