/* Flights */
Most were attached to the arrow shaft in ‘European’ style with a cock feather mounted at 90o to the cut of the nock and two other flights attached equidistantly around the arrow shaft. <br>
Flights were attached straight, with no spiralling, and each of the 3 flights coming from the same wing side of the bird. So either all left-wing feathers or all right-wing feathers. <br>

Flights were usually attached to the arrow shaft by twine although sometimes they were simply glued to the arrow shaft using a glue such as birch tar (Hedeby & Snohetta, Norway). The most common twine used seems to have been of sinew.
