Wing, or R-loaf, is an induction coil which can be analysed as a loaf with an extra cell added as to make it asymmetric.
Wing (W in conduit names), also called block and glider, is a common evolutionary sequence that stabilizes at generation 104 as a block and a glider. A WSW-3 conduit can be made by eating the extra block using a block or eater 1. The six-cell grandparent of the wing is technically a failed puffer, as it reappears 32 generations later shifted 3 cells right and 7 cells up only to be turned into a B-heptomino 3 generations later.
The term "block and glider" traditionally refers to the most common grandparent of the wing, which has six cells and a lifespan of 106 generations. That pattern has a six-cell parent called nine, although this name is rare. Confused eaters hassles this predecessor.
Like other common evolutionary sequences, wings can be hassled, such as in the p25 wing and block hassler[note 1] and p128 wing shuttle;[4] the latter is the smallest p128 oscillator by population.
