BizJet Delivers BBJ with Newly Installed Split Scimitar Winglet Modification

BizJet International delivers a BBJ after installing the Aviation Partners’ Split Scimitar Winglet modification. BizJet completed this modification in just three and a half weeks.

“Our team delivered this product a week ahead of schedule,” says BizJet’s vice president of Operations, Roy Lischinsky. “BizJet was selected to perform this work package because of the customer’s confidence in our ability to accomplish the work faster than quoted. We were able to exceed the customer’s expectation, delivering a great product to a very happy customer. This makes the project a complete success.”

The split scimitar winglet completely redefines the aerodynamics of the existing blended winglet. The retrofit provides a drag reduction, and corresponding range increase, of 2% or more for long range BBJ operators.

This was the sixth modification to be installed on a BBJ, and the first by BizJet.
