  • Get an insider's peek into Boeing's Transonic Wind Tunnel testing lab, where technicians hover around a small scale replica of the Boeing 737 MAX. They're conducting tests on the MAX's new Advanced Technology winglet. The results of these high-accuracy tests will tell if the new winglet measures up to its desired effect.

    do they sell those winglets separately without the wings and the airplane. I wanna hook it up to my CR-V and see if it actually hellps the fuel efficiency..

    If I recall correctly from the NASA ebook: The Apollo of Aeronautics, McDonnell Douglas was one of the industry leaders working with NASA during the ACEE Program. Research for winglets was done on the MD-10. By doing so, they quickly integrated this technology into their MD-11 in 1986. Also, Boeing and McDonnel Douglas merged in 1997! The Boeing 737 MAX winglets are original in their own way.

    It have a bit difference between the 737 Max wing let with the Airbus old wing let. It is a 3-wat hybird which mix the old 737 wing let with blended winglet and the wing tip fence (which air bus used.) Also this winglet's lower winglet is much bigger than any winglet before it. But I do agree that Airbus's winglet really just looks like Boeing's 737 NG winglet

    1950's is a little too soon. :P NASA Ebook: The Apollo of Aeronautics Page 53 & 54 - It states that Whitcomb developed the idea, of winglets, in 1974 and published the results of his study in July 1976.

  • @Sheriefabraham

    Dear Boeing, please please please...Bigger cabin windows on the max! bigger than the c series or the a320s. It will create a very positive experience for the passengers and will always be preferred!

  • @timi707_1
    @timi707_1 12 лет назад

    Boeing puts winglets on airliners to reduce the strength of wingtip vortices for more efficient flight, not for youtube commenters to like or dislike the "look" of them.

  • @BoeingvsAirbus1578
    @BoeingvsAirbus1578 11 лет назад

    The MAX comes in three different models, the MAX-7 will be the smallest, flying the shortest routes. The MAX-8 will be the base model of which the MAX-7 is shortened from and the MAX-9 is stretched, and will fly more passengers than the -7. The MAX-9 is the most efficient, highest in capacity and has longest range of all of the new 737 MAX family.

    @jamesmerkel9442 8 лет назад

    u need to widen the pinch pnt of the V to a curve, & the vertical winglet should b 65% to 35% for bottom n size. I called it a tune fork design & when done right should make the ride much smoother.

    do you know if the max will include any of the dreamliner tech, like electric packs, etc? also will it retain the old overhead panel with the typical switches or will it transition to a newer one, like the 777 or dremliner?.

  • @N0616JCProductions
    @N0616JCProductions 12 лет назад

    Very true. Also, given that MD was merged with Boeing, that means, in a sense, Boeing have this technology decades before EADS/Airbus. Some people don't study their aviation history well. Also, those winglet look nothing like those from Airbus, the A380 have to same type of winglet (wing fences actually), as everyone of their aircraft with the exception of A300/330/400.

  • @jkyet
    @jkyet 12 лет назад

    Type certification of an entirely new model takes 5 years, from application to the authorities until final type certification. Plus if you compare to the A320 neo that will take 3 years.
    Do you not agree?

  • @jamesmerkel9442
    @jamesmerkel9442 8 лет назад

    A stiffener vertical rib n that protrudes (slight bump)thru wing just body close of center forces n & all vibration out the end of the wings instead of back to the cabin(55%flex wing & 45% doesn't w/out hving to thicken the wing).

  • @AaronShenghao
    @AaronShenghao 12 лет назад

    Yeah but that is way too SMALL compare with this one. And MD11 didn't actually put upper and lower winglet together, it is like a smaller downward winglet with fallowed by a much bigger upwared winglet.
