Francis Melvin Rogallo (January 27, 1912 – September 1, 2009) was an American aeronautical engineer inventor born in Sanger, California, U.S. Together with his wife, he is credited with the invention of the Rogallo wing, or "flexible wing", a precursor to the modern hang glider and paraglider. His patents were ranged over mechanical utility patents and ornamental design patents for wing controls, airfoils, target kite, flexible wing, and advanced configurations for flexible wing vehicles.

(en) Francis Melvin Rogallo (Sanger, 27 gennaio 1912 – Southern Shores, 1º settembre 2009) è stato un ingegnere e inventore statunitense. Fu inventore del profilo alare denominato "ala di Rogallo", o "ala flessibile", il precursore del moderni hang-glider e paraglider. I suoi brevetti spaziano dalle utilità di tipo meccanico e ornamentale, ai sistemi di controllo di volo, ai profili alari, agli aquiloni-bersaglio, alle ali flessibili, e alle configurazioni avanzate per veicoli ad ala flessibile.

Співавтор винаходу гнучкого крила, відомого як крило Роґалло. Крило є базовим елементом сучасного дельтаплана. (uk) Francis Rogallo (Sanger, 27 janvier 1912 - Outer Banks, 1er septembre 2009) est un ingénieur aéronautique. Il a commencé sa carrière comme ingénieur au National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) en 1936. À la fin des années 1940, lors de ses travaux au centre de recherche de la NASA à Hampton (Virginie), il débute, sur son temps libre, la création d'aéronefs peu coûteux et pratiques pour le sport et les loisirs. Il travaille sur les ailes biconiques et souples qui conservent leur forme par la pression de l'air. Les premières ailes « Rogallo » sont testées le 15 août 1958 et fonctionnent.
