Well, not really from me, HD, but I think I see what you are saying.
Actually the port winglet has been missing for a few weeks, and whilst the general handling is not affected, the port-side fuel burn has increased by 4%! No, not really, but that is the sort of comment I could expect.
- as if there is not enough muddle on this thread. Where does that leave the rest of the line? If the winglet was not 'missing' before departure, why was LGW sweeping for it? All very confusing.

Anyone clarify?.
