"I have the same suspicion about wing-lets put on the older wings not designed for it."
I'm with you. Kind of like putting a chrome exhaust tip on a Dodge Neon. Except it costs more.

Yeah like the 727-100/200's I have seen with winglets LOL.
Or back to the car analogy, I was thinking more like the huge multi-winged spoilers you see on the back of the Dodge Neon sized cars, it probably takes 10 mph OFF the top end! But they FEEL AND LOOK FAST. I guess thats what counts ;)
Enter the aviation version of the 'bricklin'
