What it isBLR’s Winglet System for your Beech King Air 90, 200, or 300 is an aluminum wing tip, carbon fiber winglet and integrated position, recognition and strobe lighting. The Winglet System increases overall wingspan by 3 feet 5 inches, providing an increase in wing aspect ratio and a valuable reduction in induced drag.

Installation of the Winglet System can be accomplished in approximately one week and will require paint to match existing color scheme. Extended length de-icing boots are available as an option.

What it doesThe Winglet System increases wing aspect ratio to reduce induced drag and allows your King Air 90, 200, or 300 to fly faster on less fuel. In addition, the Winglet acts as a physical pressure barrier, preserving valuable lift at the outboard extremity of the wing.

By increasing wing efficiency, the BLR Winglet System provides superior handling qualities during slow flight, OEI and at higher flight levels.

What’s in it for you?King Air operators around the world (see testimonials, right) are enthusiastic in their praise for BLR Winglet Systems. They tout both the aesthetic and financial benefits. In fact, many operators find that, depending on mission profile, Winglets can reduce fuel consumption by more than 5 percent. Want to know how Winglets can benefit your flight operation? Contact BLR for more performance details.

Optional extended length de-icing boots are available.

“…it is my opinion 100% of the cost of this modification can be added to the Average Retail reported in the Aircraft Bluebook - Price Digest.”

– Carl Janssens, ASA, Aircraft Bluebook – Price Digest

Ask a Pilot.

“The new Winglets look terrific and add an exciting appeal to the aircraft. General handling and roll control in particular is superb, with a noticeable increase in climb performance. I am thrilled with the product.” – Freek de Villiers, Chief Pilot, ALTP

“The change in performance with Winglets is impressive. For the first time, we can effectively reach RVSM altitudes. ROI should be less than 3 years at 500 hours per year. Great mod!” – Ken Glass, Chairman, Stony Point Group, LLC

“I’m pleased with the in-flight benefits of Winglets. Climbing between FL 280 and 320 I’m seeing 900 feet per minute. In cruise, I am way above book at 288 knots true. I’m getting a lot of attention on the ramp. This mod is a real eye-catcher.” – Bob Goff, Publisher, Twin & Turbine Magazine
