The “new” Ryanair B737-800 aircraft is currently on the ground in Prestwick and is expected to be rolled out of the hangar in the coming days.
, Europe’s biggest airline, has signed a deal worth £140 million with Aviation Partners Boeing to install Split Scimitar Winglets on its entire fleet of 409 Boeing 737-800 Next Generation aircraft.Ryanair says the modification will improve aircraft fuel efficiency by up to 1.5%, reducing the airline’s annual fuel consumption by 65 million litres and carbon emissions by 165,000 tonnes.
The winglets consist of aerodynamic revisions to the wing tip, replacing the aluminium tip with the curved, scimitar-shaped tip cap. A further ventral strake, also scimitar-shaped, is added below. As well as having a base at the airport, Ryanair has a heavy maintenance repair and overhaul facility which operates across five bays within two purpose-built aircraft hangars.
