| wingUID | [0, 1] | Reference to a wing; required, if separate paneling for each wing is used. If missing, paneling is the same for all wings. |

Remarks0. General overview
This type contains the options and parameters for the LIFTING_LINE wing mesh generation. Depending on the existence of the <wingUID> node, it either serves as a common parameterset for all wings, or as a specific parameterset for one special wing.
1. <wingUID> (optional)
If this reference is set, the parameters specified here are used for the referenced wing only. Otherwise, if this node is missing, the parameters are used to generate the meshes for all wings.
2. <spanwise> (mandatory)
Parameter for setting the spanwise grid fineness. Approx. [Value * 5 + Number of spanwise segments (including additional segments due to control surfaces)] spanwise panels shall be used. If the wing is symmetric, this value is used for one side only.
3. <chordwise> (mandatory)
Parameter for setting the chordwise grid fineness. Approx. [Value + Number of chordwise segments (including additional segments due to control surfaces)] chordwise panels.
