It doesn't exactly what it says, it folds the wings! Not many planes do this, but the MelJet 777 has folding wings. I guess it's for getting it into a hangar, but don't quote me on that!

Yeah thats what it does.
Some aircraft have opening doors windows and other gadgets that are used by these commands. ( a beautiful one is the an-225 )
All default aircraft have opening door/s, simply press shift+e, if there is more than one press shift+e and the number, for instance shift+e and then quickly 2.
The 777 folding wings are an option, as yet no airline has chosen this. They are used if the gate is too narrow, but so far there has been no need for this.
