a sexier airplane just gets sexier!
That's hot, although not unexpected, since their new Falcon 7X was designed with the winglets. There's a winglet retrofit available for the Hawker 800 series, as well, but the thin winglets look out of place on a plane where everything else is short and stubby.
they designed winglets for the G-II first, then came the project for the Hawkers and 737s. 757s weren't far after than, and now the Falcons should start popping up soon.
Actually they started with the 727, 707 than 747-200F before the mentioned types. :lol:
boeing itself did the development work on those, not aviation partners...Quote:
