  • Here is a quick video I put together with my iPhone 5 since I don't bring my real camera to work, please forgive me for the shakiness I just wanted to get some quick shots to showcase these awesome new winglets.
    United and Alaska Airlines where the first two customers to order and have these winglets installed on their 737-800 aircrafts. This video shows aircraft N586AS which was the first in the Alaska fleet to be retro-fitted with them.
    Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-890

    The winglets do look cool, but I much prefer the 737 MAX's winglets over these ones. It just looks like they attached a tiny wing to the bottom of the winglet and added small spikes! It just looks a teensy bit... well, crude. I digress however, this is an awesome video! Thank you for sharing!

      Elliot Legos, Ferries, And MO! there the same winglets just the 737 max need discharch cords because its more likey to get struck by lightning

    nice and thats for , what? 1/2%?/ but it does add up

    • @Mets747
      @Mets747  10 лет назад

      With the cost of everything these days, this may seem like nothing but does a lot for the company in fuel savings
