    we'll finally see a winglet-equiped 757 screaming off of 13! yet another reason for me to stop on the ramp and watch... :P
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Maybe it is part of the testing program, would all of the winglets that American puchased for the 737-800, maybe they through in some for the 757.

    AA anounced some time ago they were putting winglets on their 757s. They could have done a better job in the design. The plain grey is just ugly, the tail Eagle would have look hot going down the winglet sort of pointing to the AA.com.

    I don't think it will come to rsw because AA only operates Md80's out of here to Chicago/O'Hare, Dallas/Ft. Worth, St. Louis
    Maybe i'll catch a CO 752 here.
    you NY spotters have a good chance in catching 194AA

    and how can i tell a CO plane regsteration is It the regestration that is like this: N1976543

    Talking of funny winglets - I saw something on A.net today about jetBlue getting Aviaton Partners winglets fitted on the A320 - there was a link to a picture as well - I forgot to make a note of the link - but - bigger winglets on the A320?? Then a google search revealed - "-A320 winglet mods to begin in late 2006" - anyone have any further info?
