OK, I've been wondering this for awhile now... perhaps someone knows the answer? Winglets seem to be the rage on airliners of late. I see them on all the new RJs and I think 737-800's come stock with 'em. They're credited with increasing efficiency of the airframe, and 'generating' thrust by eliminating drag... sounds ideal for a race plane, right? how come they haven't appeared?
Here's a link to a winglet article if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
