Re-wingletted A330/A340?
When doing my usual round of browsing pictures of pretty airplanes this afternoon, I stumbled across an intriguing picture of the A340 prototype (CN 001) F-WWAI taken late 2003, fitted with a pair of 737NG-style winglets rather than the usual 747-400-style.

Can anyone closer to the action tell me a bit more about this modification and winglets in general? In particular; how do long, slender winglets compare to their shorter, stubbier counterparts?

That looks interesting, I'd also be keen to hear further info.
But, unless you took it, take the photo off and just leave the link. Airliners.net do not like their photos being posted elsewhere!

I left the copyright line in, as I thought that made it quite ok as it takes some of the load of their servers by chucking it into the photobucket.

Afraid that isn't good enough A-FLOOR. It says on a.net:
I'm not having a go at you, I just know what that website is like when it comes to egos getting bruised/rules getting broken etc.

Ahem -- isn't that exactly what he did? Link to the photos in the manner described?
Spag, apparently he had initially included the photo as part of the post, contrary to the rules, then edited his post to include the link only not the actual photo. Note at the bottom of the post indicates the change.
