Loft with guides

Hi!
I am trying to add a 'wing' to my part that should be curved in 2 directions. Adding a guide affects only one surface and adding two guides still leaves the side edges straight. Is the only solution to keep adding guides (and inclined reference planes)? Is there a simpler way to achieve the same result?
Thanks!

A simple End condition might be enough. Just use normal to profile on the end, and match curvature on the start. The latter should work. Play around with the weighting until it's good enough.
If you want better control, you will need more Loft Guides.

It took me a lot of steps to make it act the way I think you're wanting it to act:
