Post B737NG - Winglet-problems
A german tour operator (AirBerlin) found some cracks in the wing structure of his now winglet-equiped 737īs.

Not modified airplanes in the same fleet are reported to be troublefree.

The cause of these cracks are suspected to be flying high speeds at low altitudes, e.g above 250 IAS below FL200.

Momentarily no further information available.

cheers
