Wingtip Device - Hybrid Designs

Hybrid Designs

On the Boeing 737 MAX, a new type of wingtip device has been introduced. Resembling a three-way hybrid between a blended winglet, wingtip fence, and raked wingtip, Boeing claims that this new design should deliver an additional 1.5% improvement in fuel economy over the 10-12% improvement already expected from the 737 MAX.
