Boeing Designs Advanced Technology Winglet for 737 MAX

Boeing announced today a new winglet design concept for the 737 MAX. The new Advanced Technology winglet will provide MAX customers with up to an additional 1.5 percent fuel-burn improvement, depending on range, on top of the 10-12 percent improvement already offered on the new-engine variant.

Pictured here is an artist’s rendering of a 737 MAX 8 with new Advanced Technology winglets. This rendering is updated to reflect design decisions made since the launch of the program in August 2011.
