Concertina bag
A packing bag in which the wing is folded so the cells stack neatly on top of each other.
What it means
The leading-edge rods are lined up one on another so they are not bent unnecessarily. The concertina bag is an inner bag for the wing, not the rucksack that carries the whole kit.
Example in context
After landing I pack the wing into the concertina bag before it goes into my rucksack.
