Hi all,
my first post ever in PPrune is the try to hinder a myth growing...if it is not too late now!
Yes, there was a passenger on an Air Afriqiyah A330 and he did post on PPrune! He did so because he had missed the left side winglet on his flight. His forum name is Three Mile Final., his posting was from the 4th of may and the thread was moved now to the Tech Log.
Following the idea of gabona stick, i tend to assume, that someone in the media got it wrong and reported "wing inlet" for winglet, not knowing what was spoken of at all and mixing up two different issues.
For me sure it was a little surprise to learn from that thread, that it is no problem for buses to go with only one winglet.
Best regards!
