TOULOUSE, France, Dec. 17 /PRNewswire/ — On December 17, 2008 Airbus flew API’s Blended Winglet Technology on a company owned Airbus A320. These Winglets have been specifically designed for the A320. We expect the performance to mirror that achieved on other jet aircraft using API’s Blended Winglet Technology.

If analyses, including market and financial aspects, provide a positive result, Airbus and API would offer the Blended winglet for the A320 family aircraft.

Aviation Partners, Inc. developed the patented Blended Winglet Technology.

This fuel saving green technology is now flying on over 3000 private and commercial jets world-wide.
