Whenever I see winglets I am reminded why cowboys always turn up the sides of their hats.


So they can fit three in a pickup.

United has not flown their first passenger plane outfitted with split scimitar winglets today in regular operations. The airline confirmed that the airplane was was recently taken in to have the winglets removed following flight testing. Regular blended winglets were then re-installed. The split scimitar versions are expected to be installed into the fleet in February of 2014, following full FAA certification. http://airchive.com/blog/2013/12/09/united-set-first-flight-new-split-scimitar-winglets/

If you think about it, Airbus and Boeing pretty much traded designs for their new winglets. Airbus originally had an above and below wing rake design and Boeing had something very similar to sharklets lol.

Unfortunately it is not just this site that has idiots. Every site that has comments allow them and it is very difficult to get them removed even when you report
