The Elliptical Winglet shape provides superior aerodynamic performance across a broad range of mach numbers. The patented shape ensures the lift distribution closely matches optimum lift distribution along the span of the wing, which significantly reduces the induced drag of the aircraft. The resulting drag reduction enhances the overall operational performance for the Citation X and provides the following performance benefits:
- Increased speeds at higher altitude
- Improved hot-day / high altitude take-off performance
- Increased maximum range capability
- Improved second segment climb performance
- Reduced time-to-climb
- Reduced fuel consumption
- Reduced direct operating costs
