I'm feeling good about these new fins. They're so non airplane like. During reentry air flow will be perpendicular to the wings instead of parallel.

Just look how much bigger the BFR will be compared to the Falcon 9 ???? also notice the bottom fins will for sure hinge, there’s also another set of canards up front (shown in the middle) pic.twitter.com/WpENFRYze2
