Seattle-based Aviation Partners’ patented Performance Enhancing Blended Winglets have been designed for a number of commercial and business aircraft; applications include Boeing, Falcon, Hawker and Gulfstream airframes. More than 3,000 aircraft currently in-service have saved an estimated 1.5 billion gallons of fuel, according to Duncan officials.
