    Man those look like HUGE winglets on that 747. The ones on the 737s are 6 feet high, those must be 12 feet atleast.

    Gordon - can you show us a pic or at least tell us what airline it is lol, blended winglets on a 742, that is interesting.

    To stay on topic, I think I will have to see the planes winglets in person, in order to judge it, maybe it will be slightly larger then the average "Winglet"? who knows?
