Winglets and Performance Enhancements


The winglets attach to the wing, the same as the original Skymaster winglets but with ~ twice as many screws because of the increased lift.

The winglets can be used with and do not interfere with either the Horton or Robertson STOL modifications.

1. ~ 100 feet decrease in take off ground roll
2. ~75+ feet per minute Increase rate of climb

5.  ~6 mph decrease in take off and landing speed.
6. There is a significant increase in aileron responsiveness.

In addition to the above, most people think they add to the beauty of the Skymaster.

Once you fly a Skymaster with them on, you won’t like the way a Skymaster without them handles.
