There's a large vent opening under the wing tip that, when approaching the stall at the wing tip, bleed air is blown towards the tip to energise the vortex and avoid flow separation. So someone told me in a bar long ago after my inaugural 'walk-round'. Please don't tell me they were kidding.
Thats hilarious, now I know what I will tell the next newbie during the first walkaround
