AMC 22.375(a)  Winglets

ED Decision 2003/13/RM

For the wing the interactive effects between the winglets and the wing should be taken into account, as there are:

(1)     Changes in wing lift distribution:

(2)     Additional bending and torsion moments at the attachment point of the winglet due to aerodynamic and mass loads on the winglet;

(3)     Effects of inertia; and

(4)     Effects of drag on wing torsion.
