Slick design? Check. Huge windows? Check. A turbo-charged piston engine that can scream through the sky? Check and mate. This plane looks like it can play in the big leagues.

Minix wing tip device promises 6% gain in fuel efficiency for airliners

http://www.gizmag.com/minix-wing-tip-vortex-aircraft-aerodynamics/15526/





Fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions are huge priorities in the aviation industry – passenger airliners chew through amazing quantities of fuel. Take the Boeing 747, which guzzles somewhere around a gallon of jet fuel per second – it's clear that a percentile improvement in fuel consumption can make a huge difference to costs at the end of a long-haul flight. That's why the Minix wing tip deserves close scrutiny. It replaces the tilted winglets at the tip of an aircraft wing, can be retrofitted to any airplane, and smooths out the wing-tip vortex, reducing the aircraft's wing drag. Minix claims the design is five times more effective than a regular winglet and can save as much as 6% on an aircraft's energy costs. For a commercial Boeing 747, that equates to a saving of around 600,000 gallons of fuel per year, per aircraft. Food for thought.
