Scimitar™ tip Blended Winglets cut fuel consumption by up to 7 percent, increasing your range by up to 180 nautical miles. This enables you to fly nonstop across the U.S., go from California to Hawaii, or comfortably reach Jeddah from Paris. You can also complete shorter missions with greater payload and fuel reserves.
With Blended Winglets, you can fly up to 18 knots faster at the same rate of fuel burn. You’ll climb faster to cruising altitude. Step climbs are reduced or eliminated for most trips. Optimum cruising altitude will be up to 2,000 feet higher, freeing you from traffic and weather for more direct ATC routing.
Let's face it. Blended Winglets make a Hawker look cooler. You gain the sleek, athletic look of a new airplane, which increases the enjoyment of every mile you fly, and makes it even more attractive at resale. You also cut CO² emissions with this technology. So you're visibly eco-friendly.
Blended Winglets let you fly 30 minutes longer. You can also depart from high-altitude airports on hot days with up to 1,500 lbs. more weight. Another smart feature: Our exclusive LED navigational lighting system for more reliability, longer life and higher visibility.

The system features an actual four-foot overall wingspan increase. With added wingspan in combination with the Blended Winglets, the airplane climbs higher and faster and flies farther than the standard Hawker 800 series aircraft.
For Hawker 800A/B the modification removes the large fences from the wing and replaces them with leading edge vortilons. This further reduces drag, preserves favorable low speed performance, and results in a very clean look.
The construction of the Hawker winglet features modern composite graphite skin and full-depth bonded honeycomb core with integrally bonded attachment fittings. The leading edge is polished aluminum. Total incremental installed weight of the Performance Enhancement System is less than 112 lbs. for the Hawker 800 and 118 lbs. for the 800XP.
