More Economical Dash Speed Capacity
Blended Winglets Allow More Economical Dash Speeds
Blended Winglets allow an operator the flexibility of trading improved fuel mileage for greater dash speed capability. As illustrated above, an operator flying a 737-800 equipped with Blended Winglets over a very long sector could shave up to 12 minutes off of actual flight time, at the equivalent fuel mileage operating without winglets, by flying slightly faster.
