Unfortunately, it doesn't, yet. There was talk of a morph animation with plib at one stage but nothing more... I believe that should be possible with OSG but we'll have to wait for the more urgent features to be reinstated first. As to the wing bending... it certainly has been done before, I believe in Silent Wings. Also "Rigs of Rods", built on OGRE, features a fully deforming aircraft (Antonov of some sort IIRC) along with the trucks which it focusses on.
