After a certain forward speed, the rotor wings are going to stall and provide either little or no lift. The wings will provide the added lift. The higher the speed, the more the rotor stall, the larger the wings needed.

NO telling what the station is considering this is just an artists drawing for a Boeing concept. I don't see it ever going into production.
