jet2 757 winglets

[zetland76]

Hi,

Have jet2 retro-fitted some of their 757s with winglets?
What benefits are there for the fleet operator?

Thanks

Mike

They reduce wingtip vortices which means in simple spotter terms better MPG:)

They can also allow more of the wing to produce lift, which means they can carry more weight too.

G-LSAB and G-LSAC retrofitted with winglets so far with others to follow I am sure!

Also produce about a 5% fuel saving.
