The Boeing Company and Aviation Partners, Inc., of Seattle, Wash., are forming Aviation Partners Boeing, a new joint venture that offers blended winglet technology for in-service Boeing commercial aircraft. Blended winglets are upward-swept tip extensions to aircraft wings. 2, record 2, English, - blended%20winglet
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Winglets were common on business and commercial jets before Aviation Partners arrived on the scene. But those traditional winglets, found on all Airbus models and the Boeing 747-400, rise at a sharp angle from the wing.... The winglets weigh about 120 pounds each. They are made of high-tech carbon graphite, an advanced aluminum alloy and titanium. The winglet is eight feet long and tapers from its four-foot wide base to a width of two feet at the tip. Unlike traditional winglets typically fitted at abrupt angles to the wing, this new advanced "blended" design gently curves out and up from the wing tip, reducing aerodynamic drag and boosting performance. 3, record 2, English, - blended%20winglet

Boeing s'associe à la société Aviation Partners pour transformer les bouts d'aile de ses avions. Les «winglets» ou ailettes sont des extensions, flèche en haut, qui améliorent les performances aérodynamiques de l'avion. [...] La réduction de traînée ainsi induite se traduit par une augmentation des performances de vol en croisière, une réduction de carburant, une capacité de charge utile accrue, ou l'accès à des itinéraires aériens jusque-là non autorisés. [...] Cette ailette présente une forme incurvée sur 360° afin de reboucler sur l'aile. Le produit n'apparaîtra pas sur les avions avant trois ans. Les pièces sont en matériau composite et en aluminium. De taille variable, elles peuvent atteindre 2,5 m de haut et augmenter l'envergure de la voilure de 1,5 m. [...] En boucle sur l'aile, les ailettes, en cours de certification, équiperont bientôt les Boeing.

Two spacewalking cosmonauts set up a "Strela, "or "Arrow, "cargo boom outside the Pirs airlock last November. That telescoping crane can be extended to the rear end of the Zvezda crew module. Mounted to the opposite side of Pirs, the Strela boom installed by Onufrienko and Walz is positioned so that it can be reeled out to the end of the Zarya space tug, which is hooked up to the U. S. side of the station. Both booms are capable of hoisting cargoes that weigh as much as three tons. They can be operated either separately or simultaneously to move cargoes or spacewalkers around the outer hull of the Russian half of the outpost. 2, record 4, English, - Strela%20cargo%20boom
