Wingtip
A wingtip is a part of a plane that is most distant from the fuselage of a fixed-wing aircraft. Because the wingtip shape influences the size and drag of the wingtip vortices, the tip size has produced a diversity of shapes and sizes.
Those are:
Squared-off
Aluminium tube blow
Horner style
Winglets
Drooped tips
Raked wingtips
Tip tanks
Sails
Fences
End plates

Many aircraft types, such as the Lockheed Super Constellation shown here, have fuel tanks mounted on the wing tips, commonly called tip tanks
