747-400 sans winglets

sorry, this is my second thread on the 744 this week!

Are there variations of the 747-400 out there without the characteristic winglets?

I ask, after seeing this picture:
http://www.airliners.net/photo/Japan...46D/1015803/L/

I thought it may have been the information entered wrong by the photographer, but following a search for more pictures of this specific aircraft, all the results show the same aircraft without winglets, but still identified as a 747-446D. (I understand the final '46D' refers to the Boeing customer code? in this case JAL.)

Replies appreciated as always
