Aircraft fairing

An aircraft fairing is a structure whose primary function is to produce a smooth outline and reduce drag.

"Wheel spat" redirects here. For automotive wheel spats, see fender skirts.

These structures are covers for gaps and spaces between parts of an aircraft to reduce form drag and interference drag, and to improve appearance.
