Mel, there are two different sets of winglet shapes that they added to aircraft for testing. One looked squared off like that of an A330, and the other had an angle on it similar to the Embraer jet series.
That does it!Quote:

Time to start spilling some of the magic.
Hey Mellyrose, I'd love to see the curved winglets repainted :mrgreen: . If B6 decides to use their unique schemes more power to them, but I'm afraid that we might see a monotonous white or dark blue as on the E90's. Ridiculous to say; blanked wing lets are another saving of fuel as the paint doesn't weigh them down more. It seems awkward for a carrier not to apply any extra advertising. Glancing at the winglets of 'Canada's jetblue'-WestJet precisely- one can right away notice their web address.
Seems jetBlue won't be getting anymore of these. According to a thread on A.net (which quotes a non-online article), Airbus has scrapped their A320 winglet program, citing a lack of benefit for the additional weight and reinforcement.
I saw that too. It's a shame, I rather liked the new winglets, especially the second one that was tried.
There are two different programs looking at the benefits to winglets for the A320, one being Airbus, who never really went for the idea and the inhouse program jetBlue is working on.Quote:
