Need Help
« on: January 12, 2006, 11:00:40 pm »
Hi, I was wondering if someone works in the air corps here and could get me a picture of the winglets on the new learjet.
Im doing a thesis on aircraft design/Wing design at college and if anyone could get a few pics for me I would be really greatfull as it would really help me out in explaining how these winglets work in the thesis.

Thanks,
Shaun.

Barno,
No Learjet winglets Im afraid but I did a quick search in Google for images under the search winglets. There are lots of good closeups of traditional winglets and also some of newer blended winglets. It also contains some good diagrams of winglets at work and production of tip vortices. Hope thats of some help.
