Adding Winglets to your Duke will provide dramatic improvements in flight characteristics and handling, making it safer and more manageable in all conditions. This is especially true when high angles of attack occur during take-off or engine-out operations.
Enhanced performance results from an increase in effective wingspan, or aspect ratio, and associated reductions in lift-induced drag.
Benefits include:
- Climb to altitude faster
- Cruise more efficiently at higher altitudes
- Enhance safety margins at take-off with lower liftoff speeds for short field operations
- Reduce Dutch roll tendencies
- Lower stall speeds allow approach category A IFR minimums
Winglets may only be installed on aircraft equipped with BLR Vortex Generators.
